SUPERPOWER SUMMARY
MeMe Ratliff is the health & physical education (HPE) instructional lead for Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS). She has twenty years of experience in elementary physical education as well as three years as the teacher engagement specialist for her district before taking over as the HPE lead in fall 2019. She strives to create multiple pathways for members of the JCPSHPE family to grow their practice, develop leadership skills, share resources, and create stronger instruction.
A former member of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Teacher Advisory Council and a Hope Street Teacher Fellow, MeMe embraces the power of connections and collaboration to strengthen the profession. An early adopter of social media for pedagogy, she believes that a professional learning network that inspires and pushes one to continually grow is as important as the professional learning community in a school or district.
