Mr. William "Bo" Ludwig,
Physical Education Specialist

I have been a Health and Physical education teacher and football coach in the Virginia Beach Schools for twenty five years. I have spent most of my carreer at the junior high/middle school and high school level. The last four years I was at Green Run High as a teacher and head football coach. Currently I am the assistant head coach at Bishop Sullivan Catholic High School in Virginia Beach.

I live in Virginia Beach near the ocean front with my wife and two daughters. We share our home with seven cats (all strays we rescued) one golden retriever/labrador retriever mix dog and one Katrina abandoned dog we have adopted.

Philosophy of Teaching:

“Everybody needs somebody.” My students need me. As I approach my class at the beginning of the year, I explain to them that they will learn from me that I will learn from them. All my teaching is based on “inclusion,” whereby I challenge all my students to do their best. All children participate for the duration of an activity at their own level and abilities. Although this may take more planning, it allows the students to reach their own potential, where they can see their own growth and development. My greatest success will always be the child who learns how to learn.

Heidi Jacobs , Physical Education Assistant

From kindergarten to master's degree, I have been educated solely in New York. This is where I developed a love for playing sports and being active. With a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies, I am certified to teach physical education and health education. I obtained these degrees at SUNY Cortland and SUNY Stony Brook.

Before moving to Virginia Beach, I taught physical education at an elementary school in New York.  Coaching gymnastics was the inspiration that lead me to teaching. Because of this innate passion, I continue to teach gymnastics at a local gym in Virginia Beach.
