*Jodi Crowdis*

       First of all, I want to let everyone know how excited I am to have the opportunity to teach here at Clinton Public Schools!!  I had the honor of completing my student teaching here , so I am thrilled to be back in such a great community.

    I was born and raised in Taloga, Oklahoma.  I played sports all of my life, including basketball and softball.  I was a member of both the women's softball and basketball teams at Oklahoma City University and graduated with a Bachelors degree in Health/Physical Education.

     I taught and coached in Texas for five years, then moved back to Oklahoma where I taught 1st grade for four years.  This will be my 9^th year at Southwest Elementary.  I am blessed with a 12 year old daughter, Abbi Jo, and a 4 1/2 year old set of twins, Keeton & Preslee, who keep me on my toes at all times.
