CLASS: Physical Education

SCHOOL PHONE: 203-977-5053 / Email: llubowitz@ci.stamford.ct.us


This is my third year teaching Physical Education at Northeast Elementary 
School.  Before coming to Northeast, I taught P.E. and Health at Rippowam 
Middle School in Stamford.  In addition, I also coached basketball, 
volleyball, and cross country at Rip.  Here at Northeast, it is my goal to 
provide all of my students with the skills, knowledge, and desire necessary 
to lead and benefit from a healthy and physically active lifestyle.

Prior to getting my Teacher Certification in Connecticut, I enjoyed a career 
in Social Work (M.S.W., Columbia University, B.S., Albany University), 
working with children and adolescents in the N.Y.C. Family Court System, and 
in the Mental Health System in New York City.  Exercise, sports, and physical 
activity played a relevant role in each of these settings.   

Although a native New Yorker, I have enjoyed living in Stamford with my 
family (husband, three sons, and rather large retriever)for nearly twenty 
years! I look forward to seeing all my students, out and about in Stamford, 
being physically active!  Please be sure to say "Hi"!
