Welcome to Mrs. Sunshine's PE Class
Who is Mrs. "Sunshine" Turner 
I am originally from Hendersonville, NC a true MOUNTAIN girl. I graduated with a Bachelor's of Science in Athletic Training from UNC-Charlotte in May of 2008, and in December of 2010 I graduated with a Master's of Arts in Teaching in Physical Education from Western Carolina University. August 2008 I became a Certified Athletic Trainer. June 2011 I became an Emergency Medical Technician.
I have been teaching for 9-years, and have had the opportunity to spend all 9-years here at Central. Throughout my time here at Central the PE program has grown and developed to include scooters, bicycles, and most recently archery (bows and arrows).

Philosophy
As a physical educator, I believe that physical education should equip students with the tools necessary to make healthy individual choices by providing an environment which adds value, meaning, and an understanding of a physically educated person through the implementation of activities and curriculums beyond the norm.
A quality physical education program consists of the development of skills, fitness, knowledge based concepts, and personal responsibility (sportsmanship, character, cooperation, collaboration, communication, etc.).
My Passion is for each student to leave the classroom with a new found knowledge and appreciation of the concept of being physically active. Physical Education must provide a safe learning environment, which is conducive not only for optimal learning of all students, but also one that allows students the freedom of self expression and self actualization.
