Meet Our Staff

Hello! My name is Mr. John Jeffries. I will be the full-time physical education teacher at William B. Gibbs, Jr. Elementary School in Germantown, MD for the 2017-2018 school year.

I have taught for 25 years, including 14 years as a health and physical education teacher and 11 years as an instructional specialist. I earned a bachelor's degree in Health and Human Performance and master's degree in Educational Administration from the University of Maryland at College Park. I am thrilled to be joining a culture of excellence within the Gibbs community.

I am married to my wife, Lauren, who is a speech pathologist in the PEP program at Gibbs. Together, we are raising three daughters, ages ten, nine and four. In my spare time, I enjoy riding bikes and spending time with family and friends. I grew up in Silver Spring, MD.
