Kelly Church, Physical Education, Connecting with kids during remote learning
In this episode I interview Kelly Church, a long time physical education teacher and boys basketball at Hedgesville High School. Kelly and I chat about the current circumstances most teachers are facing, how to combat the mental and emotional toll, and what he's doing to connect with his kids.
