I am married to Jack Dingus, who is also a Morris Eagle!  He teaches driver's education, Geography at the Middle School and coaches football and track. We got married last fall on November 22. Coach Dingus has to be extra careful in remembering our anniversary because it's also my birthday! We have three children, Eli, Peyton, and Brooklynn. Eli is a Sophomore at Morris (brand new this year, too!), Peyton attends Shawnee Middle School, and Brooklynn goes to Dale Middle School. We have two fur babies as well! Mr. Marsh E. Mellow is a Poodle/Doodle mix, and Dutton is a zany Jack Russell/Pomeranian Mix. 

My favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz, and I love all things “Oz-some.” I also am a big fan of cows (miniature, highland, and good ol’ regular farm cows). My newest addition to my cow collection is a fun picture of a cow with red glasses on (to match my fun glasses) hanging in my elementary office. When I’m not teaching, I am usually at one of my kiddos’ activities or in the stands on Friday nights, watching my husband coach football. Go Eagles!!
