One hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much money was in my bank account, nor what my clothes looked like.  But the world may be a better place because I was important in the life of a child.

I am a paraeducator in the middle school media center at Thompson.  My daughter Maria and I live in Rake.  Maria is a student at North Iowa.  I have two older children, who are both graduates of North Iowa.  Holly graduated from Waldorf College and currently lives in Kanawha.  Jordan is a graduate of Central College in Pella and lives in Ames.  In my spare time I love to read and harmonize with my friends in the group, The Pink Ladies.  I also have two Yorkies, Sasha and Nattie.

I am currently a paraeducator in the elementary school as well as a middle school football coach and assistant high school football coach.  I graduated from West Hancock High School in 2005, and Central College in May of 2009 with a degree in elementary education, a reading endorsement, and coaching authorization.  I have one brother, Eric, who attends North Iowa School, and one sister, Wendy, who is currently living in Germany.

I am a paraprofessional at the Buffalo Center building and work with the elementary.  My family moved to Buffalo Center when I was 4 years old.  I spent my K-12 school years in the Buffalo Center and Rake school buildings.  (2nd grade year being bussed to Rake.) I was in Jr. High when Lakota came over to Buffalo Center and was a junior in high school when we officially became NIHS (1991).  So my letter jack is purple and white with BCRL letters, my class ring says Buffalo Center Rake, but my HS diploma says North Iowa High School.  I guess it would just be easier to say I have always been a Bison!
I am divorced and have three wonderful children - Kassidy, Gabriel, and Izacc.

I am a paraeducator in the elementary building.  My husband, Mark, and I live on a farm near Buffalo Center.  We have two children, Lyndsay and Jeff.
I believe that there is no one way to teach a child.  You must try many different approaches to find the way that works best for each individual student.

I am a paraprofessional at the Middle School in Thompson.  I work with the BEST kids!  I graduated from North Iowa in 1995, so it's fun to reconnect with my former teachers.  I worked in insurance for seven years before we moved "home" in 2006 for a job change for my husband.  Brandon is an engineer at Stellar Industries in Garner.  I was a stay at home mom for two years and started at NICS in September of 2008.  We have two boys, Sam and Ben, as well as a dog Phoebe, a cat Bob, and a fish Fluffy.  We live on a farm by Thompson which is close to both my parents and my grandma.  I LOVE what I do, and wake up each day excited to see what the day brings!
