As the school year comes to a close, we're taking a look at these end of year memories, achievements, and special moments across McDowell County Schools.
"It’s been an incredible and activity-filled year at Glenwood Elementary School! As we wind down, we’re reflecting on all the meaningful learning, growth, and fun that took place both inside our classrooms and throughout our school. From engaging lessons and hands-on activities to special events and school-wide celebrations, our students have been busy learning, exploring, and making memories every single day.
Our amazing 3rd–5th graders successfully wrapped up their testing, showing all the hard work they’ve put in this year, and we celebrated our final Dragon Bridge of the year together. We also had the joy of celebrating our Part Day Pre-K students as they graduated—a special milestone and a wonderful reminder of how much our youngest learners have grown!
We were proud to dedicate this year’s yearbook to our fabulous Mrs. Ray, and to celebrate some outstanding accomplishments among our staff. Mrs. Kathryn was named Beginning Teacher of the Year for the county, and Mrs. Renee graduated from Western with her Bachelor’s degree—just to name a few of the many successes we’ve seen this year!
It’s truly been a year full of learning, laughter, and Dragon pride. We are so proud of our students and staff, and we can’t wait to see what the next school year holds! "
🌟 Thank you to our students, staff, families, and community for making this a successful year.
