Hello,

My name is Nick Gries.  I am beginning my 24th year at New Holstein High School. 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 the Chairperson for the Physical Education Department and the Fitness Center Coordinator.

I live in Combined Locks with my wife Jennie.  Our twin daughters, Madisen and Makenna, recently graduated from Kaukauna High School and are currently attending college in Wisconsin and Georgia respectively.

We have a great staff and fantastic physical education program here at NHHS.  Our goal is to promote lifetime health and fitness while providing a positive, meaningful experience for every student.  We achieve this through a strong curriculum that offers a wide variety of activities and state-of-the-art facilities.

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, and participating in all types of land and water sports.
