Erin Turner joined the Physical Education and health department this year at South Lakes.
How long have you been teaching gym?
This is my sixth year teaching gym. Before coming to South Lakes I taught at Falls Church High School for 5 years and Mclean High School for 1 year.
What got you interested in teaching gym?
Believe it or not I have always wanted to be a health teacher since high school. In Virginia you have to teach both P.E. and health, so I went to college and I got a degree in P.E. and Health.
Do you have any interesting activities or hobbies that you participate in after school?
I used to coach cross country and track because I loved to run. My family is really important to me so I spend time with them as much as I can. Â
Do you have any funny stories that occurred while you were teaching?
I am kind of short so when I first started at Falls Church High School the principal yelled at me because she thought I was a student.
