A Message from Jennifer Croymans, Director for Exceptional Children

Hello McDowell County Schools Families,

As the Director for Exceptional Children, I am incredibly passionate about recognizing and nurturing the unique abilities within every single one of our students. Here in McDowell County Schools, we believe that every child possesses extraordinary potential, and it's our privilege to help them discover and grow that potential.

Our commitment goes beyond academics. We are dedicated to supporting your child's holistic development—academically, yes, but also physically, developmentally, and emotionally. We understand that a child's well-being in all these areas is crucial for their success and happiness. From specialized learning strategies to fostering social-emotional growth and ensuring a supportive physical environment, our team is here to champion your child every step of the way.

We know that you, as parents, are your child's first and most important teachers. That's why we are so eager to partner with your family. Your insights, observations, and dreams for your child are invaluable to us. By working together, we can create a powerful network of support that empowers your child to thrive, overcome challenges, and celebrate every achievement, big or small.

This journey is a team effort, and we are thrilled to be on it with you. We are confident that by combining our expertise with your invaluable partnership, we can ensure every McDowell County Schools student feels celebrated, supported, and ready to reach for the stars!

Warmly,

Jennifer Croymans MCS Director for Exceptional Children
