Jenny Dunn: English II and Publications
November 13, 2008
Jenny Dunn has been teaching
English II and journalism for the past five years at Hiawatha High
School. She is also the sponsor of the Red Hawk Reader Book
Club. Prior to teaching at HHS, she taught for four years at
Falls City Sacred Heart, her K-12 alma mater. She received
her bachelor’s degree in secondary education/language arts from
Peru State College in 1997. In 2005, she earned her master’s
degree in instructional technology and design from PSC as well.
Dunn was born and raised in Falls City, Nebraska, where she
currently lives with her husband, Joe, who is a physical education
teacher and coach for the Falls City Public Schools. The two
of them have three children: Chaz, a seventh grader; Libby, a
fourth grader; and Sam, a preschooler.
Although Dunn drives from Nebraska each day, she is no stranger to
Hiawatha, as she spent many summers working at Wilde Tool Company,
which has been run by her family for four
generations.
In her free time, Dunn enjoys spending time at her family cabin on
the Missouri River, exercising, reading, and
scrapbooking.
