Mrs. McDowell's Fourth Grade Class

Hello! My name is Dana McDowell and I am so excited to teach your child Science and Social Studies in fourth grade this year! I am originally from Bainbridge, GA but I have made Valdosta my home for the last 15 years.

I earned my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Early Childhood Education from VSU. For the past 12 years, I have taught in the Lowndes County School system with experience in pre-k, kindergarten, third and fourth grade. This will be my fifth year of teaching fourth grade Science and Social Studies.

My husband is Broc McDowell and we have two children, Paxton (6) and Stella (2). We also have two dogs, Marley and Millie. In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and friends, read and travel. I cannot wait to begin the new school year and share my love of Science and Social Studies with my students!
