Mrs. Linda McDowell
I received a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from what is now known as Missouri State University in Springfield, Missouri. I have been teaching Kindergarten at JCCA since the school was established, but this year I moved up to 2nd grade. I believe God led me to this position, as He knew it was my heart’s desire to teach young children in a Christian school. (Psalm 37:4) It is my desire to see all of my students work to their fullest potential to receive what God has prepared for them, spiritually and academically. God promises us that it will be good, according to Jeremiah 29:11-13. I am the sponsor for JCCA’s Junior Bible Quiz (JBQ) team. This extra-curricular activity is open to all students in grades Kindergarten-Sixth grade. We quiz once a month in Kansas City.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.  You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
 Jeremiah 29: 11-13
