Denise Colberg
6th grade English teacher
After graduating from the University of South Dakota, I taught English at Yankton Middle School in Yankton, South Dakota. My husband's job then took us to Ames, Iowa, where I worked as a substitute teacher in the public schools and in the athletic department at Iowa State University as a private tutor. After my daughter was born, I decided to stay home for a while. During that time, I stayed busy as a very active community volunteer, by helping out at a children's bookstore, and also by teaching classes through a private program for gifted and talented children. In 1998, I accepted a job at Windsor Middle School, where I teach English and Speech. Since returning to work, I've subsequently earned a Master's degree in literacy.
