About Mr. AuCoin

I am now in my twelfth year with the Rams as a Physical Education teacher and coach. I coach the Boys Volleyball team, Badminton and softball. Originally from Cape Breton, I have lived and taught in Calgary, North Carolina and other parts of HRM. Growing up, I was involved in many sports with a focus on hockey and baseball.  My education consists of a BSC in Physical Education and a MEd in Curriculum Studies from Mount Saint Vincent University. When not coaching at school, I am busy coaching my two boys, Rowan (16) and Ethan (13) on the field or on the court .

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me by email or phone.

Our Philosophy

The purpose of the RMS Physical Education Department is to stress the importance of activity by using cooperation.  Students will develop problem solving skills and build relationships with peers through a variety of physical education activities.  It is our goal to stress the importance of physical activity both inside and outside of school.  Students will have the opportunity to enjoy a number of ways to learn and master new skills.  Lastly, students will be in a safe, cooperative, enjoyable, and positive learning environment!!!
