Meet Our PE Dream Team – Mrs. Bates & Mrs. Corder!
Welcome to the gym—where movement, laughter, and teamwork come together!
We’re Mrs. Tisha Bates and Mrs. Courtney Corder, your dynamic duo of Physical Education here at Barkley Bridge Elementary. Together, we make fitness fun while helping our students build strong bodies, confident minds, and healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Whether we’re teaching the fundamentals of sports, leading a high-energy game of tag, or coaching students on how to be team players, we love what we do—and we love our Tigers! Our goal is to help every child discover that staying active can be exciting, empowering, and most importantly—fun.
When we’re not on the court or out on the field, you might find us planning the next Field Day, organizing team-building challenges, or celebrating a great day with a little dance party (yes, even the teachers join in!).
We believe in moving with purpose, playing with heart, and cheering each other on. Go Tigers!
