Registration Is Open!

Thank you for your interest in PE+Plus! We are certain your experience will be rewarding physically and spiritually.

Due to COVID-19, we have had to make changes to our Fall 2020 schedule. We are beginning the semester in late September (beginning dates are listed below for each site), and starting out with four classes per site. All four classes will be outdoors, in parks near our sites. As the dates get closer, we’ll send each registered class a detailed email about where to meet. Classes will be held at the usual listed times. If we can add more classes to the semester after the initial four, we will, but that isn’t certain yet.

Please continue to use the registration form below — even though the dates and pricing are wrong, it will still work.

Pricing for our Fall 2020 Semester

Please send just a $50 registration fee with your registration. Because of the uncertainty of the number of classes we’ll be able to hold, we will work out how much the rest of tuition will be as we go. We ask for your patience as we manage these unusual times!
We are putting all registration funds in a separate account. That way, if the situation or regulations change before we’re scheduled to start, we’ll be able to refund everyone.

Videos from Coach!

Coach Dave has made and posted some videos! The first is a video “showing and telling” about all the Legos donated by PE+Plus families for Children’s Hospital in honor of Debbie’s dad, Bob Lewis. The second video is in two parts. It’s called “Right and Left,” and it talks about how developing both the dominant …

About PE+Plus

Debbie is really not this tall. Ethan & David are holding her up on top of a crate because she refused to be so short in every picture.

The PE+Plus Family

Our first online presence was in 2003. Our kids sure have grown up since then. PE+Plus first began with classes one day per week in January 2000 and quickly grew to 4, 5, and 6 locations per week all across the city. It has been a lovely journey. Just this year, 2017, our youngest, Ethan is turning 21 and David was married to the very sweet and lovely Grace over the summer.

With over 30 years of experience in Education, Coach Dave is a state licensed teacher, certified for K-12 physical education and K-6 classroom education. He has also served as a principal in a private homeschool high school. Family involvement has been a fun bonus ~ David and Ethan have participated, student assisted, and even taught in the family’s home business/ministry. Dave and Debbie have both volunteered at CHEC Conferences and occasionally speak on family and homeschool related topics. They have also taught homeschooling introductory seminars, enjoying the opportunity to help families get started on the “grand adventure.”

We reminisce over these years with a few takeaways ~ we loved homeschooling! We began at kindergarten and enjoyed every stage. Both of our boys began taking college classes at 16 ~ it felt like great timing and was a nice blend with homeschooling at that age.

As we move forward with a new website and take a bit of time to recollect our years of connection to PE+Plus families….we have LOVED being a part of your lives! We have countless families who were with us for 10 to 18 years and cannot even begin to tell you how you have blessed our lives, letting us share yours. It has been with great joy that we have welcomed many new families in these recent years. We will treasure the new memories and the investment that you have given us the opportunity to enjoy with your families. We have been so blessed to live and serve in the Denver/Colorado Springs Homeschooling Community.

What People Say About PE+Plus…

PE+PLUS has been the perfect fit for our family! Our two teenaged boys needed activity & a chance to meet friends since we were new to the area. They enrolled in two classes a week. We loved this option of “class” as opposed to joining a sport league because it brought the opportunity to learn the rules & strategies for a wide variety of sports and games while in a fun, safe, & encouraging environment led by a very skilled , patient & Godly coach. Our sons needed the basic knowledge and confidence so they knew what they were doing and be able to join in a “pick-up game” at many points in their future. My boys still mention lessons learned from Coach during devotion time.

I wanted you to know how much we appreciate all you do for so many families. We love PE+Plus, not just for the physical benefits, but for the friendships we have made there. (I often think the mom friends are as important as the kid ones!) You two had to deal with a lot to put Field Day together. You have it down to a science…We are already counting the days until PE starts up again [next semester]! Blessings to you all!

– L. A. (homeschool mom)

PE+PLUS is a wonderful program that my 14 year-old daughter has enjoyed since preschool. She has always looked forward to the fellowship and fun she has found there. My husband & I appreciate that this is not your ordinary sports program. Coach Dave teaches the kids comprehensive understanding of many sports while emphasizing Christ-like sportsmanship. We value how Coach Dave uses prayer and stories to integrate an element of character growth into the program.

– N.C. (homeschool mom)

Every Tuesday on our way home [from PE+Plus] there’s non-stop chatter going on. We tell our parents all we’ve learned and done. Coach doesn’t just teach us sports; he tells us stories from his past and they always come back to the One who matters most, God. God is the #1 thing in our coach’s life, and he has helped God be the #1 thing in mine.

– M. F. (8th grader in 2010)

You have impacted and inspired my life through your stories and teachings. Thank you for making gym a fun place to come learn, play and grow. You and the kids in the class have blessed me for the past 5 years. I am so grateful to know you and your family.

– S.W. (Homeschool graduate)

Thank you so much for being such a positive influence in their lives these last 3 years. They have grown so much ~ in their faith, their concept of good sportsmanship, and in their physical skills. We are so grateful they were able to participate in PE+PLUS. We will sure miss part of our routine.

– E.T. (homeschool mom)

Coach Dave has been one of God’s agents for my two children. Not only have they learned many sports skills, but also teamwork, leadership, character, sportsmanship — how to win (and how to lose), how to handle emotions during physical play — plus many real-life applications of life skills delivered via a short Scripture teaching each week. Best of all, my kids were incredibly motivated to get their work done in order to have the privilege of attending. The talk at our house is and has been “When does PE start again? When is Field Day?” This activity is SO FUN that my kids did not want to miss it and worked toward it all week long. In the end, in our house, PE is the ONLY homeschool activity that is non-negotiable in our schedule and budget.
