Meet Your Teacher

Hi, I'm Mrs. Foss

    I never would have pictured myself as a teacher in a rural school setting when I was growing up.  I was born in Norwalk, Connecticut and raised in Naperville, Illinois ( a suburb of Chicago).  After graduating from high school, I attended the University of Iowa (GOHAWKS!), and then finished my schooling at the University of Northern Iowa.  I graduated with a degrees in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education.  Upon graduation I taught Title 1 Reading at Wapsie Valley, Readlyn Elementary.  I am currently in my twelfth year of teaching First Grade at Dunkerton Elementary.  
    When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my husband and children.  We have four boys ages 17,12,5, and 4. I am expecting our fifth child in September, a girl!  I am involved in the Waterloo/ Cedar Falls community and actively take part in the many activities in which my children participate. I am the board secretary for the Waterloo Youth Hockey Association and also serve as a high school representative on the board.  Also, I am an avid golfer, and look for as many opportunities as posssible to work in a round of golf in my busy schedule! 
    Please stop by and introduce yourself!  I look forward to meeting you!
