Background of JoAnn DeBoer
I was born in Sioux Rapids, Iowa, and attended Sioux Valley High School, graduating in 1980. I attended Westmar College in LeMars, Iowa, and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in English and a minor in Speech Communications. I began my teaching career at Lakota Consolidated School in 1984 and continued here in 1987 when the North Iowa Community School District began a sharing agreement.
My life companion is the math instructor in Room 22 of North Iowa High School. We have two children, Abbey & Stephanie. Abbey is married and teaching Middle School Writing for the Perry School system. Stephanie is finishing at UNI and will be attending Allen College for Nursing.
My name is Sabrina Parcher, and I have lived in Forest City since third grade and graduated from Forest City High School in 2005. I will graduate from Waldorf College this May with an English Education degree and am student teaching in Mrs. DeBoer’s classroom from February 24 to April 28. North Iowa is a great school district; I’m looking forward to learning from and working with this community including students, parents and school staff.
