Mr. Dally mdally@lebtwpk8.org
I have worked in Lebanon Township for over 20 years going between Valley View and Woodglen as a Physical Education teacher for grades 4-8. I have also spent that time coaching both the boys basketball & baseball teams. When I'm not teaching and coaching I enjoy watching college athletics and spending time with my wife and daughter.
Mrs. Miller mmiller@lebtwpk8.org
This is my 14th year teaching Health and P.E. in Lebanon Township. I move between both Valley View and Woodglen teaching 4th-6th grade P.E & 7th & 8th grade Health. I have my Bachelor of Science degree from East Stroudsburg University with a certificate in both Health & Physical Education. When I'm not teaching I love spending time with my husband and two children!

I have been teaching for a total of 13 years, but this is my 10th year at Woodglen School. I teach 5th and 6th grade health and 7th and 8th PE with Mr. Dally. I grew up in Rockaway, attended Morris Knolls High School and then I attended William Paterson University and played field hockey at the collegiate level there. I am happily married and have 4 little ones at home! I live locally and love spending time with my family and our chocolate lab!
