P.E. Department Emphasizes Fitness Ms. Matthews, Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. Russ, Miss Moran, Mrs. Mo The girls at Harpeth Hall are fortunate to have such qualified personnel leading them in the Physical Education Department. Not only do these teachers instruct skills during P.E. classes, but they sponsor extracurricular activities as well. Each member of the staff, including Pat Moran, Susan Russ, and Leslie Matthews, has a degree in Health and Physical Education. Each of these women strives to give Harpeth Hall the best that she is capable of giving. It is this quality that makes the P.E. Department of Harpeth Hall unique. This program ' s main goal is to educate students in as many physical activities as possible to produce a well rounded student. Whether it is Mrs. Moran keeping score during tennis intramurals, or whether it is Ms. Matthews instructing students in the proper way to spot for a pirouette, these teachers give the most of themselves for the benefits of the students and Harpeth Hall.
