Welcome to Mr. Vietinghoff's Physical Education Website

Dear Student(s) & Parent(s)/Guardian(s):

As a gentle reminder, semester one (1) ends a week from today on Friday, January 18th, 2019(this is also a half-day for Stout students and all students will be dismissed at 11:05 a.m.).  All grades for all my physical education classes, along with student comments will be available on Student Connect as well as Parent Connect at the days end:

If you have any questions or concerns, I encourage you to e-mail me at: vietinl@dearbornschools.org.  Thank you for your continuous support and help.

Yours in Education,

Mr. Vietinghoff

Please view the video below for a very inspirational story about 1992 Barcelona Olympic sprinter, Derek Redmond.  Through school and even physical education, they teach us to continue to work hard, and never, ever give up!

Please ‘view’ our learning target(s) as well as strategies for success.

Please ‘click‘ to view a brief video of Stout physical education teacher Mr. Vietinghoff and Mr. Antonazzo, a student teacher at Wayne State University introduce the volleyball unit to students here at Stout Middle School 🙂 

Based on Public Law 306 (October 2016), third grade students who are more than a year below grade level on the state ELA assessment are under consideration for retention in third grade.  Dearborn Public Schools staff in elementary schools have been systematically planning to ensure that teachers have the training to teach reading effectively and that students receive small group instruction based on their needs.  The current year second graders are the first group to potentially be impacted by the legislation.

You are invited to join the district task force to strengthen the planning process and to ensure that the community is informed and engaged in the success of every student.

Now that our Thanksgiving break has concluded, all students in both Mr. Tapp’s and Mr. Vietinghoff’s physical education classes will be tested in the area(s) of muscular strength & muscular endurance.  These tests include the pull-up test, push-up test as well as sit-up test.

PBIS Rewards Friday included movie and Dodgeball, which consisted of the teachers versus the Students.  Pictured below is Team Teachers.

The eighth (8th) grade Championship Team, who defeated Team Teachers 3 to 5.  Congratulations, boys! 🙂
