My Bio

Hello!  I am Mr. Jones!  I am starting my 3rd year as the the Library Media Specialist and Tech Lead at Sweetwater High School.  Although I was born in Kokomo, Indiana, both of my parents came from East Tennessee, my mother graduated from Vonore High School, every vacation I ever had was spent in this area, and I have lived in (or around) Maryville since 1995.  I worked in Knox County from 2008 until 2021 teaching English, U.S. History, Contemporary Issues, Creative Writing, Film Studies, and RTI.  In January of 2022, I became the Library Media Specialist at Madisonville Intermediate School as I finished up my own classes at ETSU to become a certified School Librarian.  I expect year 3 at SHS to be even better than the last two years, and I look forward to working with all of our students once again.
