Jonathan Keathly

Jonathan Park Keathly (12 August 1977-present) is a professional educator as well as football coach in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropex. He was born at the Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center of Ponca City, Oklahoma; of his parents Marcia Lynn (Troxel) and David Wayne, both still of Ponca City.

Keathly and his wife, Cindy (Jones) Keathly, reside in Frisco, Texas. They have no children, but a dog--a Shih-Tzu named Princess.

He is employed by the Coppell Independent School District and teaches Social Studies as well as coaches athletics at Coppell Middle School North. While under the employ of CISD, Keathly has received numerous accolades, most recently being a Great Educator of the Quarter.

Keathly was born and raised in Ponca City, a town in north-central Oklahoma. There, he attended McCord elementary, where he still holds the school basketball record for most points scored in a career. He went on to graduate from Ponca City East Junior High as well as Ponca City High School, commonly known as Po-Hi. Whilst attending Po-Hi, he set another record, this time in football; that he shares with many other former Oklahoma competitors: the most fumbles by one player in a single quarter of action (3).

Upon completion of his high school career, Keathly attended college at Oklahoma State University, majoring in education. It was at a summer job as a lifeguard at Sun N' Fun Family Waterpark that he met his future wife, then Cindy Jones.

He and Jones were married on July 13, 2002, and moved to Plano, Texas, only two weeks after their nuptials were complete.
