Welcome~
This is my tenth year at Lake Tahoe School and I’m excited for another fun and productive year. As well as teaching Health in the Middle School I will be working closely with our Athletic Director, Jon Cooper, as our sports programs continue to thrive and grow from last year. I will also continue to teach health in the elementary grades, and help with the PE program. I will be the co-head coach of the Cross Country team this fall, co-head coach of the 8th grade boys basketball team with the amazing Coach TK, and head coach of the Track & Field team in the spring. Lastly, I am honored to be Lake Tahoe School's first Dean of Students. I look forward to my new role at LTS as Assistant Head of School, but more importantly I look forward to the opportunity of working closely with parents, teachers, and our students throughout the school year. GO, BOBCATS! Mr. Kris |
