Coach Benavides stands out not only for his dedication and passion but for the innovative and engaging way he connects with students across all grade levels.
Coach Benavides works remarkably well with elementary students, creating a positive and energetic environment where physical education becomes more than just exercises - it becomes an adventure. He has a gift for teaching fundamental skills through creative games and activities that make learning fun and accessible for all students. His ability to engage even the most reluctant learners is nothing short of revolutionary.
In addition to his excellence in elementary physical education, Coach Benavides also plays a vital role in coaching middle school and helping with high school athletics. His broad experience and deep understanding of student development allow him to adapt seamlessly to different age groups, fostering teamwork, discipline, and growth in every athlete he coaches.

He is not only an educator but a facilitator who understands how to reach students in meaningful ways. His enthusiasm is contagious, and his impact is long-lasting.
