For the past 3 years, Coach Combs has been a very valuable part of our community. He coaches PE and works as a high school soccer coach, putting everything he has into each class and game. Overall, he has had a positive impact on our Middle School community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During PE, Coach Combs is often described as, \u201cReally nice, super chill, and pretty awesome,\u201d says eighth grade student Donovan Maloney. \u201cMy experience has been really good, he is a pretty cool teacher.\u201d Even though Coach Combs has been here a short period of time, he has affected this school in great ways. Coach Combs not only coaches games, but also helps improve the talent in athletes during gym class. \u201cWhen I first started softball, I couldn\u2019t hit the ball for the life of me,\u201d seventh grade student Lola Fulham-Fitzgerald says. \u201cNow I can hit better.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Outside of school, Coach Combs likes to grill out, do yard work, and play with his three kids. He is a very active person, and would describe himself as \u201cPatient, calm, and athletic.\u201d He tells us his favorite thing to do with a student is to \u201cmake them feel comfortable and confident enough to be able to perform in PE class or soccer programs.\u201d He has helped many students achieve a better performance in the sports they play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen I first met Coach Combs, he was really nice to me and I really understood him,\u201d says seventh grade student Henry Wenzel. Coach Combs has held a lasting impression with each student he meets, making sure that they feel seen. He has been a very valuable coach for the past 3 years, and we are excited to spend more time with him in the following ones!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
