Mrs. Krystal Tucker
Hello! My name is Krystal Tucker and I am the social worker at Richards R-V School District. My husband and I moved from Colorado to West Plains in January of 2024, and I had the privilege of first getting to know Richard's students and staff while working as a substitute teacher for a few months. I am excited to now jump into my role as the school's social worker!
I've worked with children, teens, and adults in a variety of social work settings for over 10 years, but school-based social work has always been my favorite kind of social work! I love connecting with students and their families, walking with them through hardships, and helping them access resources that can improve their lives inside and outside of school. I enjoy spending my free time with my husband Dylan and our 2 rescue dogs Winston and Luna.
If you would like help connecting to community resources or you'd just like a listening ear, please don't hesitate to reach out to me!
