My name is Joanne Ernster. I have worked at the Emery site since 1987 and work as a paraprofessional. I have worked with Special Education and Title students, and currently am the online class facilitator and study hall supervisor. 

  

I was born and raised in Mitchell and attended 2 years of college at SDSU.I have been a resident of Emery since 1975.  I have 4 children (all Emery HS grads), all married, and 10 grandchildren. In my spare time, I love to walk, read, watch TV, go to movies, and spend time with my family and friends.
