Powder Puff Football at Upper Room Christian School

The girls are practicing and we are excitedly looking forward to our first Powder Puff  Flag Football game of the year. Former San Francisco 49er and New Orleans Saints fullback Jason Isom and his dad former Long Island football coach John Isom are working with our girls, teaching them the fundamentals of the game.

The girls love the competition and the school loves to come out for this exciting event. The girls split up into intramural teams and the competition high as the teachers, staff and students cheer them on.

Athletics and Physical Education are important here at Upper Room and we are so pleased to have hired a new PE teacher this year. David Waller is a graduate of Old Dominion University with a Bachelor's degree in sports management.

Physical Education

Physical Education is an important part of Upper Room Christian School's overall program. Our motto is, "Growing Up in Christ, Spirit, Soul and Body". This is a picture of some of our elementary students learning the fundamentals of Basketball. We have been blessed with a beautiful facility with plenty of space for the children to run, play and learn.

In fact, Upper Room Christian School has produced some professional athletes and coaches and it all starts with the fundamentals learned in gym class. When the weather is nice we conduct some of these classes outside on our spacious property.

These days, with our increasingly sedate lifestyle, exercise play an increasingly important part in a student's  overall health program. Eating well, drinking plenty of pure water, rest, exercise and regular hygiene are all components taught in our health classes to reinforce the necessity of a healthy lifestyle to our students.

Grace and Peace,
