I loved TC ever since I worked here as a teacher & coach from 2011-2018 and was the only place that I wanted to return to when decided to return to teaching. I think it was fate that Mr. Parker left at the same time that I was returning to my teaching career, so I could finish at TC❤️

The scrimmage is now VARSITY ONLY
Hi! My name is Kristin Coble. I am so excited to join the team at Twin Cedars. My hometown is Kirksville, MO. I attended Central Methodist University in Fayette, Missouri for my bachelors degree in early childhood education and the University of Kansas for my masters degree in special education. I spent about 12 years working as a preschool general and special education teacher in northeast Missouri and Central Iowa. I have also worked as a special education associate. I currently live in Pella with my husband, Bobby. I enjoy spending time with my family, doing art and craft projects, and spending time in nature. I am passionate about special education and making a difference for all children. I grew up attending smaller schools and Twin Cedars reminds me of that. I am looking forward to being part of a close-knit community.
DMACC Classes begin tomorrow! Please make sure you pick up your books & materials and get logged in tomorrow!
