Jaime Koller--P.E.

Miss Koller grew up in upstate New York and has lived in Houston, TX, Cleveland, OH, and Vernon, NJ. During her time in these cities, she worked for Continental Airlines. After spending several years with the airline, she decided to pursue her passion for teaching Health and Physical Education, beginning her teaching career at Ridgewood Public Schools.

During a break from public education to focus on her two children, who currently attend school in 有料盒子 Bucks, Miss Koller worked at the 有料盒子 Bucks YMCA. There, she co-developed an inspiring reverse-inclusion wheelchair basketball program, motivated by Ciarlo Liples, a CB student with Spina Bifida and lower extremity paralysis. Thanks to her efforts, the community now has access to 24 multisport wheelchairs.

Miss Koller returned to public education during the pandemic and is thrilled to be back, doing what she loves most: helping children lead long, strong, healthy, and playful lives. She currently teaches at Barclay and Pine Run Elementary Schools. Although Miss Koller can often be found lifting weights, her true joys involve being outdoors skiing, fishing, camping, and hiking!
