Our Principal

Mr. William Shadwick

We would like to introduce our principal, Mr. Bill Shadwick at Falling Water Elementary school. He has a large family, and he has been married for thirty years. His wife is a teacher at Soddy Elementary School, and he has two daughters. His oldest daughter, Lindsay, is twenty-two, and his youngest daughter, Lacy, is sixteen. Mr. Shadwick graduated from UTC in 1979, and got his masters in 1985. He was the principal of Harrison Elementary and North Hamilton County Elementary schools prior to coming to Falling Water.

We are sure you are interested in things Mr. Shadwick does outside of school. Some of the things Mr. Shadwick is most interested in are hunting, four-wheeling, fishing, and watching sports. He is also interested in all kinds of music. His favorite is oldies.                                   .          

We think you will enjoy Mr. Shadwick as much as we do!        

Dear Falling Water Families:

     It is indeed a pleasure to continue my services to you and your children here at Falling Water Elementary in our quest to provide a top quality educational experience to all. It has been proven time and time again that the difference between a good school and a great school can be traced to one common factor-that being the extent to which the parents, caregivers, and stakeholders work together with school personnel to see that each child learns, grows intellectually, and emotionally, and achieves at the highest possible level while in our care. With this mutual bond, we cannot go wrong. The success of every child is of utmost importance to us, as I trust it is to you. I look forward, with great anticipation, to another exciting and rewarding school year!

                                                                                                Sincerely,

William J. Shadwick, Principal
