My name is Nick Gries.  This is my 18^th year at New Holstein High School.  I currently teach Physical Education Grades 9 and 10.  I also teach Weight Training and Advanced Training and Injury Prevention.  I am a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh where I earned a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Physical Education, Health and Coaching.  I am also the Chairperson for the Physical Education Department and the Fitness Center Coordinator.

The goal of the physical education department is to promote lifetime health and fitness through an effective curriculum that offers a wide variety of activities and state of the art facilities.  We strive to make physical education a positive experience for every student.

I live in Combined Locks with my wife Jennie and my twin daughters Madisen and Makenna. 

I enjoy spending time with family and friends.  I am involved in coaching youth sports and I enjoy participating in all types of land and water sports.
