I am an AACPS: Parent, Jones Elementary School

Recently we had some various issues with our sons, most recently, our oldest boy. Our son is special and needs extra considerations that are not the easiest to understand, as his condition is rare. We are relatively new to our area and the newness still hadn’t worn off, leaving both my husband and I feeling misunderstood and uncertain about how things were going to go for us with the boys here in Severna Park. I reached out to Ms. Fincher to talk and she responded immediately, making time to see me the same day. Upon meeting her, her smile immediately made me feel better. She was so kind and listened so attentively. We talked for a long time and she came up with solutions for us to start making changes for our boy(s). I can only begin to tell you how relieved I felt when I left the school that day and how much of a difference it has made for me and for my sons, especially my older boy, who really needed the outreach, but was too shy to ask for help. Thank you to you Ms. Fincher and to Jones. We are very excited to have our boys continue to grow within your school.
