Laura Gates
Hello!!! I am Laura Gates and I have been teaching 30+ years in Lexington School District One. I LOVE what I do at Midway Elementary. When your child walks into my gym they are ready to learn about being physically fit throughout their life and new sport skills(pickleball) to give them activities to participate in that are lifelong. I have 2 children, Mitchell and Caroline, who I have watched grow into awesome adults. My husband Al retired from being a principal and has recently taken a job at the VA. I also have 3 dogs who keep me moving, Petey, Cosmo and Stella Jane.
I look forward to having a fun, exciting and physically active year with your children.

Patrick Koone
Hello! My name is Patrick Koone. This is my first year at Midway Elementary School. I am very excited about joining the Mustang family! My wife and I have been a part of the Lexington community since 2014. We have a 2-year-old daughter who is always on the go and loves spending time with our yellow lab. When I am not teaching, I spend my time on the football field as the varsity wide receivers coach for River Bluff High School. My goal for every student that enters the gym for PE is that they walk out with the confidence and knowledge to do a new skill, and that they fall in love with physical fitness!
