My name is Shari Dantzler [dance-ler]. My hometown is Hattiesburg but I've enjoyed the past 14 years in Madison County.  I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Psychology from William Carey University.  Three years later, I discovered my passion for the classroom and returned for a Master of Education and recently a Specialist degree from WCU. My hope is that my desire to acquire knowledge sparks excitement and interest in my students to become life-long learners as well. 

I've enjoyed my teaching experience with various subjects such as Math, Reading, Science, and Social Studies in 4th and 5th grades at Mannsdale and Camden elementary schools.  For the next 5 years, I was thrilled to be a part of the beginning of the new technology program implementation in MCS as I taught ICT 1 at Madison Middle School.  Now, I am beyond excited to be working with future teacher leaders that will hopefully return to our school district and be amazing teachers that love this career path as much as I do!
