Lisa Desilet
3rd Grade Teacher Magnet Teacher
Lisa was born and raised in the Boise area and received her Bachelor of Arts from Boise State University. As a third-generation Bronco, the blue and orange blood runs deep in her family. She is married to Phil, a Boise City Firefighter, and they have one daughter, Olivia (3), who is very excited to start school at Paramount in 2009. Unfortunately, their chocolate lab, Bailey (6), won't be able to join her, though she desperately wants to. When she's not in the classroom, you might find Mrs. Desilet and her family fishing for Cutthroat Trout, playing in the park, or scouting for deer in the Foothills. Mrs. Desilet has worked in both Boise and Meridian schools, most recently in 2nd grade at Seven Oaks Elementary. Her background in both Education and Business help bring real world application to the classroom. As an AmeriCorps volunteer, Mrs. Desilet developed a love of teaching while working with at-risk students in the Boise School District. Since then, she has been involved with children and education in a variety of ways - in classrooms, coaching drill team, teaching dance, and volunteering around the valley.
"I am so excited to join the staff at Paramount. They are a great group committed to the success of all the students. I look forward to getting to know them and the families we serve."

“I feel lucky to be placed at Paramount, working with such highly skilled teachers and in a grade level I love! It will be an exciting year together as we explore new concepts and feel the pride that comes when we meet the challenges before us. I am looking forward to meeting each of you soon!”

SueAnn Moyle
3rd Grade Teacher
SueAnn received her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Boise State University and is currently pursuing a graduate degree in Educational Technology, specifically using the internet for educational purposes and creating curriculum webs. She has been teaching in the Meridian School District for 15 years at Summerwind Elementary, Meridian Middle School, Ustick Elementary, and Chaparral Elementary. She has taught several grade levels--from 7th grade math to Kindergarten--and has loved each grade level for their unique opportunities. SueAnn helped open Chaparral Elementary nine years ago, so she knows how exciting this time can be. She is familiar with the Spalding method and is thrilled to have a Spalding focus at Paramount Elementary. SueAnn is married and has three children--Kelsie (17), Jake (15), and Preston (10). Her two older children go to Eagle High School and her youngest will be attending Paramount Elementary. SueAnn’s children are all involved in sports and she is their biggest cheerleader! The Moyle’s live in Star on a farm and have many animals including a chocolate lab, eight horses, a bunch of sheep, and lots of ducks and peacocks. They grow a variety of crops including sweet corn, grapes, peppermint and spearmint, silage corn, alfalfa seed, wheat, and hay. When SueAnn’s husband isn't farming he is a politician, which has provided the family an opportunity to learn how the government works up close.
“Hello new families to Paramount Elementary! I look forward to meeting you and can't wait for the school year to start! I am so thrilled to be able to share in the excitement of opening a new school and being one of the teachers who may get to teach your child.”
