Hello, my name is Travis Spears, and I am excited to return to the faculty of West Florence High School for the 2019-2020 school year. Prior to becoming a part of the Knight Nation, I was an English Language Arts instructor in Darlington County Intervention School, Darlington-Lee County Adult Education and an English Adjunct Professor at Florence-Darlington Technical College.  I have a passion for literature and communication that, I hope, is apparent to students in the classes I lead. 

I grew up in Effingham, SC and am a proud graduate of Hannah-Pamplico High School. I attended the University of South Carolina, Columbia where I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Language and Literatures with a minor in secondary education. I am currently pursuing my Master's of Education degree in Educational Leadership from Grand Canyon University.
