About
My name is Christine Drago and I am graduate of Manhattanville College where I received a Masters degree in Physical Education and Health Education. I am in my 12th year of teaching, 7 of which have been at PS 20. Aside from teaching at PS 20 I am also a Professor at Manhattanville College teaching a graduate course in Physical Education. My passion is working with students to teach them the importance of Physical Education, healthy eating, physical and mental wellness, and finding ways to support them in leading healthy active life styles for a lifetime. I am also the champion of PS 20's Wellness Council, which won the 2016-2017 Kathleen Grimm NYC Wellness Council of the Year award! I was the NYS AHPERD 2020 Amazing Person Award Recipient, as well as the 2020 Flag Award for Teaching Excellence Recipient. Lastly, I am proud to announce that in 2022 I will be joining the Open Physical Education team as a National Trainer!
