Hi, Welcome to my class website! I teach 5th Grade Writing at Westside Elementary. I am married to Jeff Dingler, and we have 3 children: Cade (17) Cole (15), and Chloe (10).
I have been teaching 18 years in Polk County, 18 of them at the WONDERFUL WESTSIDE ELEMENTARY. I am excited to get this school year underway, and look forward to helping your child succeed. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at jdingler@polk.k12.ga.us.
Educational Philosophy
My educational philosophy focuses on the individual learner, as well as; his/her educational needs. I want to provide students with teaching strategies to help them reach their highest potential. I believe that developing positive character traits are essential to becoming a productive citizen in today's society. I also believe parental involvement is important to a child's success. I believe that parents and educators should work together to provide students with the best possible support system available.
