General Information:

I have been teaching at Rosemont for 22 years.   I went to college at Barton College (formerly Atlantic Christian College) and earned a degree in Health and Physical Education.  I am also licensed to teach classroom, grades 4 through 7.  I enjoy teaching Rosemont students year after year and watching them grow and learn.  I am very excited about this school year!  We will work on learning, having fun and becoming physically fit! 

 Physical Education Staff:

Janet Nixon, PE specialist                                                   Assistants:  Taniya Walker and Sharon DePeralta

This is Miss Walker's second year as PE assistant, but she has quite a few years experience working with Parks and Recreation in the after school program.

I am proud to announce that Mr. Cassidy has taken a position at Trantwood Elementary as their new physical education specialist.

I am also proud to announce that our new physical education assistant is Rosemont's Volunteer of the Year.  Her name is Mrs. DePeraltaShe also has a son in first grade who attends Rosemont.   She is adjusting well and is a wonderful fit for our physical education department.
