Mark Domeier mdomeier@nrheg.k12.mn.us I’ve taught my entire career at NRHEG, starting in 1996. My wife Michelle and I live in Ellendale and have two kids, Jayna and Anton. In addition to teaching English, I am involved in extracurriculars with officiating and serving as the Voice of the Panthers at many varsity events. I am a music minister at our church and enjoy collecting comic books and luring people to the Dark Side of the Force. Plus, I have written three novels and write a weekly column for the NRHEG Star Eagle.

Kristin Barnes kbarnes@nrheg.k12.mn.us I grew up in Duluth, MN and went to college in California (California State University East Bay). I spent time living on the East Coast in both Rhode Island and New Jersey before returning to Minnesota where I met and married my wonderful husband. We now live in Waseca with our blended family of five children ranging from 2-14. I love to garden, hike, and spend time outdoors. I'm excited to be a part of the NRHEG teaching team and look forward to a great year.
