Welcome Falling Waters Students and Parents!
My name is Mr. Dinslage and I work as one of the HAL facilitators in GPS! If I look familiar, it's most likely because I taught 5th grade at Falling Waters prior. I now, however, have a unique opportunity to be at two Gretna Elementary buildings- Falling Waters and Gretna Elementary! On Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday afternoons I will be working at at Falling Waters and on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Friday mornings I'll be at Gretna Elementary.
I received my bachelors and first masters degree from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. My second masters was completed at Peru State College. Throughout my time in school, I developed a passion for effective communication and lifelong learning. In my free time, my wife and I love roller blading, making homemade ice cream and fishing. During the summers I help out Douglas and Sarpy counties as a 4H archery instructor, I work as a ranch hand and I love tutoring math!
I love pushing kids to their fullest ability whether its at school, on the archery range or during a tutoring session. I often say, "You aren't learning if it's easy for you." I can't wait to challenge our young learners this year and help guide our students to creative thinking and perseverance! If you need anything from me, don't hesitate to shoot me an email!
