The Physical and Health Education Teacher Education (PHETE) program in the Department of Kinesiology hosted a local workshop for teacher candidates about how to integrate the common core standards into physical and health education curriculums and instruction. Coordinated largely by the efforts of Lauren Cavanaugh, PhD, Courtney Kelly, MS, (adjunct) and Clancy Seymour, EdD, the event proved valuable for those in attendance. The session presenters from the Kenmore School District included Heather Ratka (Hoover Elementary Physical Education Teacher) and Heather Wolf-Rochford (Kenmore Middle School Physical Education Teacher).
To learn more about PHETE, contact Clancy Seymore, EdD at Ext. 2949.

Students completing their capstone in kinesiology recently visited Vive La Casa to learn more about services provided to refugees and asylum seekers from around the world. A presentation and tour of the facility was provided by Sister Mary.
In addition, students learned about different ways to help this organization through clothing donations, English language tutoring and other services. A special thanks goes to Joe Van Volkenburg for assisting Clancy Seymour, EdD, in the planning of this rewarding experience.
Vive La Casa, the largest shelter for international refugees on the US-Canadian border, houses, feeds and provides legal and medical support to its visitors.
