According to Gary Pflueger, principal at Valley
View Elementary School, the best teacher is one
who epitomizes “Life-long Learning” and lives as
a positive
 example
to emulate. Mr. John Beck is such a teacher!
John began his teaching career at Kyrene School
District in Tempe, Arizona, where he taught
Physical Education, Health, and Science. In
1990, he accepted a teaching position in
Boundary County. "Our students have enjoyed this
physical education teacher and leader for 24
years of his 31 year career, and the ball is
still rolling," said principal Pflueger.
One of John’s favorite sayings with the students
is, “Our bodies are made to move, so let’s get
moving!” John truly enjoys watching the kids
have fun while they are in motion. The hardest
part is motivating all students to move beyond
their comfort zone.
John Beck, a graduate of Northern Arizona
University, is married to another teacher,
Doreen Beck, who is an excellent teacher in her
own right. |
