PHILOSOPHY OF
PHYSICAL EDUCATION
The Physical
Education department believes that a program that promotes physical,
emotional and social well being will promote good habits in the lives of
different individuals. Each student is given the opportunity to achieve
success regardless of size, maturity, coordination, body type or any other
physical attributes. The department
is concerned with helping our students understand the importance of physical
education.
  
  
Coach Saldaña,
This is my second year working in the Texas school system; I was working
as the Athletic Trainer for Fabens I.S.D last
year. This is my first year as a
Physical Education teacher at Fort Hancock Independent School District. I was born in El Paso and raised in Tornillo Texas. I graduated from Sul Ross State University in Alpine, Texas in 2005. I’m very happy and proud to be part of
the Mustang family. I currently
coach football at the varsity and Jr. high level. I will also be coaching basketball and
track.
