Profile:

Hello!  So who is this teacher and what is he all about?  My name is Tim Dishaw (most call me “Dish” or Mr. ‘D’), and for the coming year all of us will be working together for what I feel will be a very exciting and enjoyable time.  I will be asking you to become an active participant on several occasions.  So be ready!  I am no stranger to Virginia Beach; I have lived here since 1986.  In November of 1999, I completed a twenty-year career in the United States Navy.  For eight of those twenty years I specialized in instructing, facilitating, and curriculum development.  My last three years in the service were spent educating literally hundreds of Navy personnel in Human Relations areas of race, diversity, and sexual harassment prevention.  I then earned my Masters in Education from ODU, and began teaching here at KMS.
