My name is Cody Ward and I am the Health/PE teacher here at Spalding.  I have taught 2nd grade, 3rd grade, and 4th grade totally 11 years of teaching.  This is my first full year teaching Health/PE and I am absoutely thrilled!  I taught 3rd grade at Spalding before this position, so it is so fun getting to have previous students as well as meet new ones in Health class. 

My name is Jason Oostra and I am the PE teacher at Spalding STEM Academy.  This will be my 14th year of teaching in the West Ada District.  I have also taught health and drivers ed.  Throughout the year, you will also see me active in intermural basketball, intermural football, and the garden club .  I look forward to another exciting year of teaching!
