Peter Savitz
Founder of Sportime, Funder of National TOY Program
Legacy Award Recipient
Peter Savitz is a former President of Sportime. Under Pete's leadership, Sportime grew to be one of the largest equipment providers to physical educators in the United States and is well-known for partnering with physical education teachers in the development of new & innovative products to benefit teaching as a whole.
He has been a significant supporter of our profession in both words and deeds. Without Pete, we would not have the National PE Teacher of the Year Program, the national dissemination of the SPARK curriculum, and other numerous behind-the-scenes decisions that would have never come to fruition without his support. In other words, while you may have never met Pete in person, we have all benefitted from his work! As you see Pete in-and-about the Institute over the next few days, please take a minute to thank him for a remarkable, meaningful career! He deserves it!!
