Ms. Borman - Math |

My name is Regan Borman (Regan pronounced as the late president!) I earned my bachelors degree from Western Illinois University in 2003. This is my first year at Wood Intermediate. Previously I taught math in Moline School District and I taught for a year and half at Rivermont Collegiate in Bettendorf. I am from the Quad Cities and currently live in East Moline with my 6 year old daughter, Sarah. She keeps me busy coaching her soccer team and running her to dance and gymnastics! I love to travel and this summer I was able to visit San Francisco and Hawaii. My next trip is to Mexico next summer. I am very excited to be here this year and I look forward to getting to know all my students. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about the curriculum or your student’s progress. |

My name is Arthur Sinksen. I teach 7th grade Life Science. I graduated from Illinois State University with a degree in Junior High/Middle School Education. I began my teaching career at Wood Intermediate in 1998. I was born and raised in Rock Island and most of my family still lives there. I currently live in blue Grass with my wife and adorable twin daughters, Isabel and Paige. I am also lucky enough to work with my wife here at Wood; some of you may remember Renee Sinksen from last year. When I have a few extra moments I enjoy spending time with the twins, golfing, working on projects around the house, and spending time outdoors. |
