Meet Mr. Gonsalves

Mr. Gonsalves (aka Mr. G) has been teaching at St. Joan of Arc for 15 years. Professionally, he worked in the marketing department with the Toronto Blue Jays for three years and spent a year of scouting in Venezuela. He also worked and ran a sports card memorabilia and collectibles shop for 20 years.

Mr. Gonsalves says that "Phys ed is the most important program offered at the high school level. With the ongoing stress of life, whether it is walking or playing a professional sport, physical activity can be one of the best things you can do for your wellness. Nothing in the world is more important than you and your family's health."
