My favorite Bible verse is Psalm 84:11, 12.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.  O Lord of Hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in You!

I am so glad to be entering my 30th year here at RCS as a 4th grade teacher.  Before teaching here, I was a student at RCS as well.  My grandparents help to start RCS and my mother was a "graduate" of RCS in 8th grade.  My longtime sweetie, Paul, is an alumni of RCS.  To day that RCS is a big part of my life is an understatement.  My greatest joy in teaching is pointing my students to Christ and His Word daily.

I am originally from Florence, South Carolina.  I was saved at the age of five while sitting on my mom's lap.  At the age of 15, I surrendered my life to full-time Christian service while a camper at the WILDS Christian camp.  I graduated from Bob Jones University with a B.S. in Elementary Education and have taught at RCS ever since then.  I live in Powhatan and attend Holly Hills Baptist Church where I serve in many ministries, including VBS Director and Church clerk.   When I am not working on school or church activities, I love to spend time with my sweetie, watch football games and NASCAR races, and make jewelry.
