My name is Amanda Pifer and I teach PE/Health at Dutch Fork Middle. I grew up in Columbia and attended school in Lexington School District 1, where I graduated from White Knoll High School. I went to USC - Columbia and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education. I continued my education at Columbia College where I earned my Master of Education in Divergent Learning. I have recently obtained a Master of Arts in Education Administration and Supervision. I am currently in my 12th year at Dutch Fork Middle and 18th year of teaching and look forward to many more! I have a 9-year-old daughter and we love spending time together watching our favorite tv shows, playing with our 3 dogs, and spending time with family.

Our goal is to teach students how to live a healthy and active lifestyle. Our curriculum provides each student with exposure to many different sports skills, fitness concepts, and health related material. Through this curriculum, it is our hope that each student finds something they enjoy and will apply those skills and knowledge throughout their life. A healthy and active lifestyle is possible for anyone! Using the skills and knowledge we provide will make living healthy an easy choice! :)
We will be using google classroom for all assignments. Please feel free to contact me via email apifer@lexrich5.org or you can call my office at 803-476-4942.
