Billie Stone, fitness teacher at Bates Elementary,
was recognized as the 2012 Physical Education
Teacher of the Year by the Kentucky Association
for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance
(KAHPERD) during the group’s conference in Louisville
on Mon., Nov. 12, and Tues., Nov. 13.
Milessa Barnes, Family Resource Center
(FRC) coordinator at Rangeland Elementary, was the
subject of a volunteer spotlight in the November issue of
the Girls on the Run Louisville e-newsletter. Girls on the
Run Louisville is a program for girls ages 8 to 10 years old
that combines training for a 3.1-mile running event with
self-esteem-enhancing and uplifting workouts. Barnes volunteered
last year to serve as a Girls on the Run coach, and
she attributes her choice to initiate positive changes in her
own fitness regimen to her involvement with the program.
Initially, the running portion of the program intimidated
Barnes, but since beginning the program, she has regularly
participated in community 5K races and even the Kentucky
Derby Festival miniMarathon. Barnes has become a dynamic
coach in the program and is a role model for the girls who
participate.
