Please Welcome ERIC SOWELL to the WARRIOR FAMILY! Eric actually joined us during last school year, but he did not yet get his warm welcome from us. Eric is always happy to do any variety of tasks, including maintenance and custodial. He has always been a member of the Warrior Family, having attended during his childhood and graduated from Shady Point. Eric now raises his own 3 Little Lady Warriors who currently attend. He said he enjoys working here because this environment is so family oriented, and he has never worked in a job that coworkers got along so well and had so much fun.
