How a passionate teacher inspires future educators through dedicated teaching and annual giving.
The shelves of Carolyn Sowell’s home tell a story. They are adorned with decades of collectibles, including oil lamps, photographs and items from a historic one-room schoolhouse.
Together, this collection of keepsakes reflects Sowell’s devotion to education and its preservation for future generations. Sowell, a schoolteacher – kind, soft-spoken, patient and knowledgeable – exhibits a passion for learning that has shaped not only her path as an educator but also that of others.
