Tina Williams

Welcome, Schley County students and parents.  I am from Jonesboro, Georgia.  My daughter, Elena, and I currently reside in Andersonville with our dog, Kellen.

Early on, I loved science.  I dreamed, like many kids growing up in the 1970s, of becoming an astronaut and pro racing driver.  These dreams guided me throughout my high school experience where I took the ‘hard’ choices like physics, but worked with cars and electrical systems in the advanced vocational courses.  After graduating Fayette County High School in 1988, I attended Samford University and later the University of Georgia. I received a Bachelor of Science in Forestry Resources with a concentration in toxicology, fisheries, wildlife, and water quality.  My favorite classes were chemistry, physics, fish diseases (taken in UGA’s Vet School), wildlife diseases, and just about any course that had an outdoor lab.  

I teach physical science, biology, and chemistry at Schley County Middle High School (SCMHS).  I have been working in the field of science education, informal and formal settings, for 23 years. Prior to teaching at SCMHS, I instructed courses at the University of Georgia and served as a Pollution Prevention Specialist for the Sustainability Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and UGA Cooperative Extension Service. The stories I love most to tell are those of my days as a park ranger, researcher, and as a fisheries technician working on the Savannah River.

I am delighted to be part of the Schley County Wildcat family.  If you need to reach me, please email twilliams@schleyk12.org
