Mr. Mike Costello

Hello everyone and welcome to the Health and Physical Education Department at Osage Elementary!  The coming 2022-23 school year will be my 2nd year here in the Voorhees District at Osage, but it will begin my 6th year overall as a Health Physical Educator.  Currently, I teach Health for grades 3-5 and I teach Physical Education for grades K-2.  I extremely enjoyed my first year at Osage and can't wait to create more memories and fun times for all my students!

A little bit about myself: I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, 30 miles north of Philly.  I have been living in New Jersey since 2016 with my wife and two kids.  I earned my Bachelor's Degree from East Stroudsburg University and earned my Master's Degree from La Salle University.  I'm currently not coaching, but I have 9 years experience of coaching baseball at the high school level and 1 year of coaching football at the high school level.  I have worked as a camp councilor previously for 8 years at a baseball camp.   I bring that coaching mentality into my classroom and work on building strong relationships with each student and fostering strong student-to-student relationships as well.  This helps us increase our teamwork and create an environment where we work together and accept one another.

LET'S MAKE THIS A GREAT YEAR!
