My name is Mary Betts. I teach Physical Education here at SJV.  I am an SJV alumni as well as a Fairmont HS alumnus. 

I attended U of M-Waseca for my AAS degree in Pre-K, Minnesota State (MSU) for my BS in Elem. Ed/Kindergarten and I completed my master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction at St. Catherine’s College in St. Paul, MN.

I have taught at SJV for 34 in the areas of Preschool, most of those years in First Grade and now in PE.

My husband Paul and I have three grown children, Andrea, Mackenzie and Dan. We also are wonderfully blessed with three grandchildren Jack, Nora and Margaret (Maggie). 

I hope to make gym class fun and exciting for your child/ren through structured activities that promote team building in a faith centered atmosphere.
