Mr.Kindrick: Science Teacher and Basketball Coach

Mr. Kindrick always has a smile.

Mr. David Kindrick is a SJHS science teacher, the girls’ basketball coach, and a former body conditioning teacher. He enjoys teaching science, because science changes every year so he learns new things every year too. He would like to think he inspires students for the good, and not the bad.

He is the girls’ basketball coach, and his team has played 21 games, and won around half of their games. Great job girls! Most of the girls think he is an aggressive leader that knows how to have fun.

If Mr. Kindrick could have any other job, he said he would be a pro athlete, a movie star, a dentist, or maybe even an artist. Mr. Kindrick is interested in sports and he is all about being active. He mentioned that he misses teaching body conditioning. He misses watching students get healthier. “It was cool to see the little dudes and dudettes improve,” Mr. Kindrick said.

Megan Mortenson and Taya Spencer, two eighth grade girls at SJHS were asked about what it was like being in Mr. Kindrick's class. Taya said that "Mr. Kindrick always makes us laugh and stuff. He is a cool teacher.” Megan agreed with Taya, “He always tries to be funny, and he is nice.”
