About Mrs. Draper
I have been in education for 25+ years after graduating from UC Davis, majoring in Managerial Economics. I received my teaching credential in Physical Education from St. Mary’s College.
I enjoy teaching P.E. because I get to see the excitement on a student's face when he/she accomplishes a skill that was challenging. I love to bring a new twist to traditional games and teach students that physical activity should be lifelong for all of us. I am excited to see what each student "brings" to the class and I look forward to learning alongside my students.
When I am not teaching, I am coaching volleyball for NorCal Volleyball Club. I am also very involved with my church playing the keyboard and singing with our worship team.
I have been married for 30 years to my high school sweetheart. We have 3 daughters - our oldest is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, our middle daughter is a Nursing student at Boise State , and our youngest is a 4th year student at Cal Poly SLO studying Child Development and Psychology. I just recently became a grandma with the addition of a beautiful grandson.
I was born in Walnut Creek, CA and grew up in the East Bay area - I went through the SRVUSD school system - John Baldwin Elem., Charlotte Wood (old downtown site), Monte Vista H.S.
I love to travel--a love fostered by my parents. I lived and schooled throughout the South Pacific for a year, and have traveled throughout Europe, USA, and Mexico.
