Thank you so much to the McDowell Chamber of Commerce and Mountain Ridge Health and Rehabilitation for taking the time to help make our campus look great! So much work went into organizing the "Days of Service" project for McDowell County Schools, and we are so grateful!

Don’t blink! Time is fleeting, and these pre-K and Headstart students already look like kindergartners! @eastfieldglobal @MCSHeadStart @NCPreK @brian_t_oliver #SomethingGreat

On this day in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson announced the creation of @HeadStartgov. Since then, Head Start programs have been a source of education, health services, and stability in the lives of countless children and families. #HappyBdayHeadStart #CelebratingHeadStart

@mrmarkgarrett @McDowell590 Today’s best quote came during the discussion of goats and how they regurgitate their food. One Head Start little said, “Oh, wow. I only eat my food one time.” 😂

[McDowell Head Start @MCSHeadStart]

Thank you MHS Agriculture class for bringing the baby goats to Head Start! The students loved it!! #BringingLessonsToLife @mcscte @MaryFinley13 @aclarkadams @adam_keith97 @mrmarkgarrett @McDowell590 @MHSTitans

@McDowell590 was blessed to have #NCTOY, Eugenia Floyd, stop by & see the great things @renatacrawley is doing for @wmespanthers. She also visited the Office of Early Learning where, in conjunction with @MCSHeadStart, the district offers Universal PreK at no cost to families.

[Eugenia @Gina4Lit]

District Visit 40: Ms. Crawley from @McDowell590 was trusted by her district & school leadership & is creating memorable learning experiences for kids. She applied for one of many @BWFUND grants and is taking STEM lessons to schools throughout the district and neighborhoods.

[Eugenia @Gina4Lit]

They are making sure that every 4 year old in the county can enroll in Pre-K/Headstart. The Early Learning Team is providing services for kids from pregnancy-preK using language and curriculum tools that kids will see on their first day of kindergarten! #NCTOYPOY

[Michelle Baker @MBaker_RunSun]

Please welcome my new #AssistantPrincipal @eastfieldglobal. Went into @MCSHeadStart to do an observation and this #prodigy grabbed her laptop and started checking boxes along with me! She will take it from here! She’s ready!

[McDowell Head Start @MCSHeadStart]

Good Morning!
