I am excited to be back at Swift Creek this year. I have taught for the past 9 years both in general education and special education, most recently CCK here at Swift Creek. I grew up here in the Raleigh area and relocated back last year from Wilmington, NC. I went to University of North Carolina at Wilmington and majored in Elementary Education (Go Seahawks!). I have a wonderful husband, a 12-year-old "puppy" named Mace, and an outgoing 4th grader. We really love going hiking and playing Frisbee golf. My goal each year is to help each child set their dreams high and I will give my students the tools and resources achieve each one of them. #otherpeoplematter

I graduated from West Liberty University with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education K-8 and a minor in Special Education M/I K-12.  I also have my ESL certification in grades K-12.  I have been teaching for 17 years and this is my 12th year being a part of the Swift Creek Family!  I am married and have 2 boys - one is in 2nd grade and my oldest is in 6th grade.  I love spending time with family, reading, traveling, and going to the ocean.

I am the AIG teacher here at Swift Creek Elementary I also teach AIG at Dillard Drive Elementary. I got my degree at Penn State and have taught middle school (ELA, journalism, computers, social studies), but I've been an elementary AIG teacher in Wake County for just over twenty years.

One of the reasons I enjoy teaching is that I love to listen to children. One of my favorite children's books is Love That Dog by Sharon Creech.

My husband and I have two daughters, three cats, and a guinea pig. We love to play tabletop games.

My name is Tina Chadwick and I am proud to be the School Counselor at Swift Creek Elementary School!  I graduated from SUNY Cortland in 2002 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education.  I started my career right here in Wake County and taught first grade for six years.  In 2009 I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill with a Master’s Degree in School Counseling.  I was the School Counselor for several years at a school in Western Wake County and was thrilled to accept this position at SCES in 2015!  I am married to Tim, a school administrator, and we have 4 amazing children, Alexis, Evan, Paxton, and Sullivan.  In my free time, there’s no place I’d rather be than with my family.  We love to spend time with our mini goldendoodle, Bailey, and also enjoy swimming, boating, vacationing, and being involved in our church community.  I am passionate about serving this community and I’m an advocate for children.  I love my work and I am fortunate to get to spend my time helping students, parents, and teachers so that our children can reach their full potential.
