Brooksher, Vicky
Computer Lab Teacher
My name is Vicky Williams Brooksher. I started work at Dickson Elementary in 1996. I started as a cafeteria monitor. I did that for about 3 years. I then was offered the ISS position and accepted. I went to Dickson Vocational School learning Basic and Intermediate Computer Skills offered by Dickson County Schools. I was offered Computer Lab Instructor in 2002 by Donnie Spann and accepted. It's been an honor to be able to work where I went to school as a child and then later my children went to school at DES as well. As of the 2019 -2020 school year I accepted the Computer Lab Instructor at Sullivan Central Elementary. I look forward to meeting the new students.

Turk, Angela
Guidance Counselor
The students call me Mrs. Angie or Mrs. Turk. I am receiving my school counseling endorsement from the University of Tennessee at Martin. I also have a Master’s in Elementary Education and a Bachelor’s in Psychology. Previously, I taught 3rd grade for several years and then worked part-time as a reading interventionist at Charlotte Elementary. I have also taught Kindergarten and 5th grade. My husband’s name is Chris, and we have one son, Nicolas. We also have three non-biological children. We have hosted several exchange students the last three years and I love and view them as my own children. We hosted a boy from Austria and one from Germany and also hosted a girl last year from Spain. We also have two dogs, Titan and Bella, that we love. Our family has lived all over the world as both myself and my husband were in the Army. One of my favorite hobbies is traveling with my family, both in the United States and outside the U.S. Thanks to the military we have traveled all over the world. I also enjoy reading when I have the time. I am so excited to begin this journey as a school counselor at a new school in Dickson County. I look forward to serving the children and staff as much as I can at Sullivan Central. “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ~Oscar Wilde
