About Me

Hi! My name is TJ Schmitt. I am excited to be the P.E Teacher at Iron Horse this year. I grew up right outside of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and thus naturally, still love all Wisconsin sports). I have been married for 3 years to my wife, Lissa. We have a 1 year old, Sawyer, who keeps us on our toes and is lots of fun. In my free time I love to go skiing, hiking, go to concerts and cheer for my favorite sports teams - Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Bucks and Milwaukee Brewers.

I graduated from Winona State University in Minnesota with a degree in Physical Education and Health Education. I also minored in Adaptive Physical Education and coaching. I have been fortunate to teach PE for the the pat 12 years and coach some sports after school as well. I am looking forward to getting to know and work with all the awesome students here.

Hopefully we have lots of fun in PE this year too!
