My name is Kristin Stoops, and I am proud to be a Golden Bear!  This is my 19th year of teaching.  In Ann Arbor, I have worked as a Librarian/Media Specialist and PE teacher at both Haisley and Slauson.  I earned my bachelor's degree in physical education and health from the University of Michigan in 2002.  In 2008, I earned my master's degree in Library and Information Science from Wayne State University, with a school library/media teaching endorsement.  I love working with middle schoolers here at Slauson.  

My husband Jason and I live in Northville with our three children.  They attend school in Northville, and are constantly playing sports.  Softball, baseball, jumping on our trampoline, and basketball are their current favorites.  Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, and keeping fit and active.  I have completed several sprint distance triathlons, several 5K, one 10K, as well as one half-marathon.  :)

My main professional goal is to inspire and teach students how to be active and fit for their lifetime.  I want students to feel comfortable, happy, and safe trying new things, having fun, learning, and moving during our classtime.
