Meet the Coach

Welcome! I'm thrilled to be starting my third year as the P.E. teacher at Main Street Elementary in Taylor, Texas. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in Kinesiology and a minor in Athletic Coaching. I’m certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED.

My goal is to create a fun, inclusive, and motivating environment where every student feels successful and excited to be active. I hope each child finds something they love about movement and carries that passion—and the skills they learn—throughout their life.

- Coach Sydney Rush

 

  • Student Support & Physical Limitations

    If your child has any physical limitations or health concerns that may affect their participation in P.E., please contact our school nurse. Nurse Brittany Lisenbee and I work closely to ensure all students receive the support they need to safely and confidently participate in class.
