Debbie Simpson

School Board Secretary
thesimpsonfam@sbcglobal.net

Debbie Simpson has a long history with Woodland Christian School. She began as a student, attending WCS from second through ninth grades. In the early 1990's Debbie returned to WCS as an educator; teaching 2nd and 3rd grades at the elementary school; and girls P.E., geography and Algebra I at the middle school. Debbie moved to San Diego with her husband and young son in 1995, where they lived for nearly ten years and had three more children. Upon returning to Woodland in 2004, Debbie and Eric were thrilled to enroll their children at WCS. Debbie took an active role in the school both as an aide to the teachers and as a substitute teacher. She also helped coordinate volunteers and organized a diaper drive to benefit the Pregnancy Support Group of Woodland. In 2009, Debbie again joined the WCS staff to help start an afternoon kindergarten program which enhanced the half day program, but stepped down after that year in order to spend more time with her family. She currently is on staff part-time in the development office.

Debbie is passionate about Woodland Christian School and the lasting impact it has on the students and families. It was through this ministry Debbie first became a Christian and grew in her faith with the support and nurturing of her WCS teachers. It is her desire to see many more students have that same support and nurturing, being educated and equipped for college and Christian life. Debbie currently serves as the Secretary on the WCS Board. She and her husband Eric have been happily married 21 years and have four children. They attend and are actively involved at First Baptist Church of Davis.

Shiloh Sorbello has been affiliated with WCS since 2005, when his wife (Sam) was teaching at the high school. Shortly thereafter he got involved in coaching at WCS and was the varsity boys' basketball coach for two season. His wife has since "retired" to be a full-time mom, but she is frequently seen taking pictures at school events and enjoys tutoring WCS students as time permits. Shiloh and Sam have been married since 2004 and have two daughters: Siena Grace and Sofia Joy. Shiloh grew up in Davis, and attended local public schools. After graduating from Davis High School, he graduated from UC Davis with a B.S. in Managerial Economics and a B.A. in Spanish. He later obtained a J.D. (law degree) from UC Hastings, in San Francisco, and passed the California State Bar Exam. Then, inspired by teaching opportunities at Esparto High School and an inner-city school in San Francisco during law school, he went back to school and completed the teaching credential program through the UC Davis School of Education. He obtained preliminary single-subject credentials in Social Sciences and Mathematics and enjoyed student-teaching at C.A. Jacobs Middle School (in Dixon) and his alma mater, Davis High. Along the way, Shiloh continued coaching basketball in a variety of capacities. He eventually returned to law and currently works in Marysville as a Deputy District Attorney for Yuba County.
