Bob Mangan has been a Physical Education teacher and coach at Ss. Simon and Jude for 18 years.  "I love Ss. Simon and Jude for the Loreto Sisters and the community as a whole.  One of my favorite jobs is coaching because I get the opportunity to spend time with the athletes and learn more about their lives."

Justine Keebler has been a Physical Education teacher and coach at Ss. Simon and Jude for 8 years.  "I feel extremely fortunate to be a teacher at SSJ, and I can honestly say that I love my job.  Not only do I get to "play" as I work, but I also get to build relationships with students and parents in the community.  As one of the few teachers who get to see children grow and mature from Kindergarten to Eighth grade, I feel truly blessed to witness their transformation."

"It is our hope that students in our classes will develop general knowledge and skills of sports as well as a love for activity.  In addition to physical activity, we also work on building sportsmanship and problem-solving skills.  We hope that each student leaves SSJ with at least one activity, recreational or organized, that he/she will continue throughout the teen years in order to keep a healthy body and lifestyle."
