     I am Patricia Ellen Swanner Radke, and I was born in Wauchula, Florida. Herman Emil Radke II, my husband, and I moved to Elmwood, Tennessee, in 1980. We have three children: Chris Kinard and his wife Kathy, Emily Radke Thomas and her husband Cody, and Herman III. I have three grandchildren; Erik, Karra, and Tricia Kinard.

     I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from TTU in Cookeville, Tennessee. In 1985, I began teaching at Forks River School and now teach 6^th, 7^th, and 8^th grade English and Social Studies. I enjoy teaching and working with children.

     You can reach me during my planning time Monday through Friday from 12:45 to 1:15.
