Coach Autobiographies

My name is Connie Natvig Minnes. I really enjoy teaching middle school students. I have completed my thirty-first year of teaching. I have been teaching at Urbana Middle School since 1971. I have taught physical education, health, and reading. My education is never completed, but I have gotten degrees from Luther College, Decorah, Iowa and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. My hobbies are Yorkshire Terrier dogs, sewing, reading, antique furniture, and loon and sheep collectibles. If offered the opportunity to travel, I would in a heartbeat. I have seen much of the United States, some of Mexico and Canada, and have traveled to Europe three times. My favorite form of relaxation is sitting on a northern beach, in a boat, or in a cabin listening to the loons on the lake. My husband, also a teacher, and I have two sons who are students at Urbana High School. My experience in computers has come from classes taken and creation of web pages for myself and school departments. Please visit my homepage. I have enjoyed working with such industrious young women.
