Mrs. Sinclair - 8th - 12th TAG
Welcome! This is my 18th year of teaching and my 7th year in the Carlisle Community School District. During the 2024-25 school year, I will be serving as the 8th - 12th grade talented and gifted teacher. My focus will be on PLC question #4 - providing advanced learning opportunities for students who are already proficient. I also help with the middle school drama program.
I am originally from Wisconsin but moved to Iowa to attend Drake University. I am a three-time Drake graduate with a bachelor's degree in insurance and management, an MBA, and a master's degree in education with endorsements in reading, English language arts, social studies, and gifted & talented education. Currently, I am working on my doctorate in Educational Leadership at Drake. I was named the 2016 Living History Farms Teacher of the Year and the 2018 Iowa Council for the Social Studies Elementary Teacher of the Year.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, hiking, kayaking, and fishing. My husband, Kevin, and I live in Carlisle. We have 6 children and 3 grandchildren. Our family consists of 4 generations of Carlisle Wildcats, so we are proud to call Carlisle our home. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns that arise throughout this school year. Go Cats!
