We have an enthusiastic physical education teacher here at New Haven High. Mr. A. Peirick’s full name is Aaron Lawrence Peirick, and he has one brother named Austin Peirick who is three years younger than he is. He grew up in New Haven and went to high school here, graduating in 2008. He then went on to Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, and he graduated in 2012. He enjoys playing golf, watching sports, taking naps, and listening to all kinds of music in his free time.
Mr. Peirick talked about what made him want to teach physical education. “I loved PE when I was in school. I like playing different sports and I like teaching different sports. I also knew I wanted to coach high school basketball, which meant I needed to teach something.”
