my bio

     My name is Rosie Wendell and I grew up in Garden Plain, KS. I am the youngest of nine children (5 sisters and 3 brothers.) My family has always been a very active family.

     I went to Bishop Carroll High School and then to Newman University where I played basketball and soccer. I was in the Army Reserves for 8 years. In 2002, I received my Master’s degree from Wichita State University.

     My goal as a middle school physical education teacher is for my students to leave my class with a positive experience about physical activity.
