Hi, I am Tobi Dattilo. This will be my 6th year teaching at Homestead Elementary but my 17th year in the district and my 23rd year of teaching elementary school.  Teaching reading is a passion for me, and I love working with first graders! I have a bachelor's degree and a Master's in Education from the University of California at Santa Barbara.  I am married to a wonderful man, Pete, and we have three children, Alex, Shannon, and Sydney.  Alex will be a senior at CU Boulder. Shannon will be a Junior at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville.  Sydney is a senior at Cherry Creek High School this year.  We love spending time outdoors paddle boarding and hiking.  We have a sweet dog named Cali.

Hi, I am Inger Moore. This is my 28th year teaching. I taught (and opened) for 20 years at Wildcat Mountain Elementary in Douglas County School District. This will be my 8th year teaching at Homestead. I was lucky enough to be hired right out of college from the University of Iowa (Go Hawks!). I grew up in Iowa, yet moved to Glenwood Springs, Colorado when I graduated from high school and received my AA from Colorado Mountain College. However, I was not granted in-state residency, and moved back to Iowa to finish my BA in Art and Art History as well as my K-12th grade Art Education Endorsement from the U of I. While attending Iowa I earned a scholarship from Rowing. I also received my Master’s in Education with a K-6th grade Education Endorsement from Regis University.

I love education, but I love children of all ages more! I love to teach and to learn. I also love being a part of higher education. For 11 years I taught at Regis University as Affiliate Facility for graduate level Art Methods and Literacy in Education classes.

My husband Jack (III) and I have 2 sons and a new puppy we named Isla. Our oldest son, Jack (IV), just graduated from Rock Canyon High School and will be living on Vancouver Island, BC to play Junior Hockey. Our younger son John is a junior at Rock Canyon High School. John also plays competitive ice hockey in Monument, Colorado.  We could not be prouder and more excited for each of them. We all love to travel, the outdoors, to fish, and watching our sons do anything that they love to do.

Hi, I'm Shannon Palumbo.  I have been teaching since 2002 and have been a first-grade teacher at Homestead since 2013.  I received my BA from Michigan State and my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from Lesley University.  I am married to a hockey-crazed man, Pete, and we have two wonderful children together.  Both of our children share my husband's love of hockey and play(ed) on competitive travel teams.  My son, Anthony, will be a sophmore at CSU and studying Business and Innovation.  My daughter, Josie, will be a freshman at St. John Fisher in Rodchester, New York, where she will play ice hockey and study Business Administration.  We also have three furballs that complete our family: our cats named Gwen and Ginger, and our dog Stanley.
