Helping Our Students to Be Healthy and Live a Long, Happy Life

We are so grateful at The Capitol School to have Coach Jenni Jensen. She is an amazing teacher who teaches our students about being healthy and living a long, happy life. She believes that sports aren't just for school, but that we should focus on life long health. She teaches our students effective ways to live an active life. She encourages many types of exercise, movement, and nutrition. Coach Jensen works with our Elementary and Upper School students. She is our PE teacher and coach for several sports including Track and Field.

End of Marathon

2023 Mercedes Marathon

Coach Jensen helped the students train for the Mercedes Marathon from the start of the school year. They run at least once per week and do so every week even when the marathon is over. Many of our students can run 30 minutes without stopping. Coach Jensen keeps tracks of their laps and reports to the students how many miles they have run. They earn tokens to display on a lanyard for specific distances.

Big Al and three girls

Big Al from The University of Alabama came to the Mercedes Marathon to encourage the students.
