Mr. Houck
Health & Physical Education
Muhlenberg Junior High School

Hello and welcome! My name is Mr. Houck, and I’m excited to be part of the Muhlenberg Junior High School community as a Health and Physical Education teacher.

Education & Background

• Bachelor of Science in Health and Physical Education – Salisbury University

• Master of Education – Wilkes University

Teaching Philosophy

I believe that Health and Physical Education play an essential role in helping students develop lifelong habits that promote wellness, confidence, and teamwork. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where every student can grow physically, socially, and emotionally.

What to Expect in My Class

• Fun and engaging fitness activities designed to build lifelong healthy habits

• Lessons that connect physical activity with overall wellness

• A focus on teamwork, sportsmanship, and personal growth

Outside the Classroom

When I’m not teaching, I enjoy staying active, spending time with family, and exploring new ways to incorporate fitness into everyday life.

I’m looking forward to a great school year and to helping each of my students reach their full potential both in and out of the classroom.
