Derek Thomas, National Board Certified PE teacher at Cheyenne High School in North Las Vegas and the 2024 SHAPE Nevada and 2025 SHAPE America Western District High School Teacher of the Year. Derek’s teaching philosophy centers on movement with purpose—helping students discover confidence, strength, and lifelong wellness. Derek creates classes that are inclusive, high-energy lessons that blend sport, fitness, and leadership development while promoting equity and belonging. Whether I’m teaching, coaching, or mentoring colleagues, my mission is to make PE a space where every student feels empowered, challenged, and proud of who they are becoming—both in and out of the gym.
