Faculty & Staff

Janis Jungmann

I am in my seventh year of teaching P.E. at Lovejoy Elementary. Before teaching at Lovejoy I taught and coached in middle and high school.

I graduated from Abilene Christian University in 1997 and I started ACU on a track scholarship. Running has always been a passion of mine, but these days I have settled for walking my energetic Irish Setters. 

Class structure for Lovejoy PE is set up as 9 week units. Students will participate in daily exercise/stretching, Brain Gym, integration of Art and Music, integration of grammer, math, science, as well as social skills.

PE curriculum we use: SPARK (Sport Play and Recreation for Kids) for K-5th and Jean Blaydes Madigan's Action Based Learning Lab for K-2nd.

This is the 1st year Lovejoy ISD will participate in the NFL's Punt, Pass and Kick Competition. Please stay tuned for more exciting news about this program!

My goal is for Lovejoy students to find some type of physical activity they love and they will participate in that activity for a lifetime.

Ms. Tidwell to Mrs. Jungmann!! Woohoo!! Derick and I were married April 8th in Austin at a beautiful outdoor chapel. Derick is an Allen HS graduate and he is a local general contractor.

I am excited about the new school year and I can't wait to see my students!!
