My Message

My name is Nicole Swinney. I’m the Physical Education instructor at Sun Valley. I am also the girls basketball & volleyball coach. I have taught many years at Sun Valley. I was born and raised in Chicago, IL and moved to Arizona permanently as a teen. I was fortunate enough to be able to move here and further my education, as well pursue my passion of playing basketball at Phoenix College. I have one daughter and an amazing spouse whom I love and simply adore. Quality time with my family and friends is my greatest pastime. I Love to travel and explore the world seeing new things. Over the last decade or so, I’ve worked in education and with children. I’m passionate about advocating, educating and giving our youth a brighter future to look forward to. I genuinely love dedicating my time and efforts in guiding them toward success. I’m grateful to be a part of a dedicated group of staff and wonderful students at Sun Valley. I look forward to all the great things that we will experience and accomplish this school year. GO EAGLES.
