Jean Manning | K-8 PE Teacher and Coach

Jean Manning  I believe that physical temple maintenance is the goal of physical education and that my ministry here at CCA is to teach my students skills for life-long physical and spiritual fitness, remembering that our goal is to honor God in all we do (Corinthians 6:19-20).

My Bachelor of Christian Education is granted from Ozark Christian College, Joplin, Missouri.  I accepted my current full time position here at CCA sixteen years ago. Before that time, I served the local church in children’s and youth ministry, a consultant in Children’s ministry, stage directing, and big events coordinator.  I also substitute taught at CCA. I have coached several sports through the years, at the middle school and high school levels.

Currently I am the Cross Country and Track coach here at CCA. I have been married to my best friend Mark for 32 years.  God has blessed us with three wonderful daughters, all CCA graduates, and two sons-in-law.  Rachel our oldest daughter is married to Kyle Touchatt.  She is the CCA cheer coach and mommy to our grandson Jackson. Our middle daughter Anna is married to Kenny Waddell and she is an SICU nurse at Wesley Hospital.  Our youngest daughter Lydia lives in Dallas, Texas and is a wholesale apparel account executive at The Block Showroom in the World Trade Center.
