BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

I was born in Plant City, FL., to Lowell and Linda Sweat. Eventually, the Lord “blessed” me with two brothers, Tom and Marty. As a second grader, my mother led me to the Lord. After graduating from Providence Christian School, in Riverview, FL., I enrolled at Baptist University of America in Decatur, GA., where I received a BS Degree in Secondary Education. In 1980, I began teaching at Florence Christian School, in Florence, SC. Currently, I am working on my
M. Ed. through Regent University, and hope to graduate in May of 2007.

Ephesians 2: 8&9 – “For by grace you have been saved through faith and not of yourselves; it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest anyone should boast.”

I have taught for twenty-five years (seventeen of which were at Florence Christian School, in Florence, SC and seve years at TCS).

FAMILY

My family includes my parents, Linda and Lowell Sweat; my brother Tom and his wife, Tracy; my brother Marty and his wife, Stephanie; my three nephews, Coleman, Luke, and Levi; and Kacie (a shih-tzu/poodle mix).

HOBBIES

My hobbies include reading and taking care of my dog.

WHAT I LIKE MOST ABOUT TEACHING

Teaching is an enjoyable experience for me because I am allowed to interact with young people on a daily basis. It’s exciting to watch students achieve in areas that they once thought were difficult. To be able to stimulate a student’s interest in learning is immeasurable. However, probably the most important reason that I enjoy teaching is that I have the opportunity to make a difference in some young person’s life.
