“’I’m giving you my baby,’” a parent once told Penny Schwinn, then a principal.
The Tennessee Department of Education Commissioner didn’t quite understand what she meant until Schwinn became a mother when she adopted her first child – something that shapes her decisions as a commissioner.
“’I love this baby, but I cannot give her what she deserves; I cannot give her what she needs, so I’m giving you my baby,’” the birth mother told Schwinn. “In that moment, becoming a new mom and hearing that responsibility… for the first time, it clicked for me like it never has before: parents give us their babies every single day, and there is a responsibility that we have in education to care for and nurture. There is a love that comes with that kind of work.
25 Women: Amanda Morrison finds magic in Tallahassee s supportive restaurant culture
Heather Fuselier
You better fasten your seatbelt before getting into a conversation with Amanda Morrison; she is going places, and fast.
In fact, she moves so fast that she didn’t even know she had been named one of Tallahassee’s 25 Women You Need to Know until her phone started buzzing with alerts and text messages of congratulations. “I have admired the women on this list for years,” she says with enthusiasm, “so it is really humbling to be added to it.”
Morrison arrived on the Tallahassee scene in 2001 as a first-generation college student. “I was not a good student,” she admits. Already a veteran of the hospitality business, where she had been working since the age of 15, she was driven to work. “I was more likely to work a double than to go to class,” she recalls.
