Lebo appointed as director of Iowa Board of Educational Examiners

GRUNDY CENTER – Recently, Gov. Terry Branstad appointed Dr. Ann Lebo as the new Executive Director of the Board of Educational Examiners, where she will oversee all licensure for educators in Iowa, among other things.
Lebo, who has taught at Grundy Center Community Schools for the past 12 years and has been the secondary principal for the past two years, said that she is honored to have been chosen for the position.
“This is an incredible opportunity to serve the field of education in a role that I think is very important,” Lebo said.
She said that although the whole process of her appointment happened very quickly – a matter of weeks – it’s okay with her, because it’s an opportunity she couldn’t say no to.
“It really is a once in a lifetime opportunity,” she said. “When the governor calls you, you cant say no to that opportunity.”
