Coach Francisco

Welcome, and thanks for visiting the GLP PE website! This is my 14th year of teaching PE here at the GLP.

I grew up in Penn Yan, NY in the Finger Lakes region (on Keuka Lake to be exact). I was always active in sports while growing up. I played soccer, basketball, softball, and was a member of our Powerlifting Club. Upon graduating HS in 2002, I attended SUNY Brockport where I earned my Bachelors Degree in K-12 PE in 2006. I spent my first three years teaching in Fairport, NY.

Why did I choose to be a PE Teacher? First of all, my mom taught 2nd grade in Penn Yan, and I always enjoyed helping her out in the classroom. I also really liked PE all through my school years, and thought that teaching kids sports and physical skills would be a perfect match. Sure enough it is!!

While not at school teaching, I spend a lot of time outdoors doing water sports, biking & running, hiking, lifting at the gym, traveling, or spending time with my family.

I enjoy visiting my parents and brother who all live in Penn Yan, and especially enjoy it in the summer months. Growing up and continuing to be on the lake has offered me many great opportunities like boating, water skiing, swimming, kiteboarding, and paddleboarding!

I work very hard each day to give your child(ren) the best physical and emotional experience in the numerous activities I teach them. I strive towards children learning something new, achieving a new goal, or doing something they have never done before!

Thank you for visiting, and if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me!
