Woodfin Elementary

¡Hoy todo el personal de BCS se reunió en la Escuela Secundaria A. C. Reynolds para dar inicio al inicio del año escolar 2024-2025! Fue muy divertido ver todas las caras nuevas y conocidas. El personal de Woodfin se sentó junto mientras el Dr. Rob Jackson hablaba a la multitud, seguido por un fantástico orador principal, Steve Pemberton. Pasaremos la semana preparándonos para recibir a los estudiantes el lunes 26 de agosto :) #wolverinepride #bcsfamily

Today was another great day at Woodfin Elementary school. Amazing volunteers from Biltmore Church showed up very early this morning to support our school with beautification projects that were much needed. Woodfin elementary continues to prepare for our Wolverines to enter the doors on August 23rd for Open House and our First day on August 26th. Thank you Biltmore Church for your support in creating a beautiful space for our Wolverines to bloom and grow.

Kindergarten camp was just the start of the excitement that student faces are bringing to Woodfin Elementary school. What a wonderful day of working, playing and learning together. Thank you to Ms. Stiles and our wonderful volunteers. We can' t wait to watch our wolverines grow.

Hola, soy Gail Buckner. Estoy muy feliz de regresar a Woodfin Elementary como su entrenadora instructiva. Durante mi carrera, enseñé todos los grados desde preescolar hasta posgrado, trabajé como bibliotecaria escolar y como administradora de la escuela y del distrito. Los estudiantes de segundo grado, quinto grado y los estudiantes universitarios de último año tienen un lugar especial en mi corazón de maestra. En mi tiempo "libre" me gusta leer (la ficción histórica es mi favorita, pero me obligo a leer al menos un texto informativo por mes), hornear (el postre es un grupo de alimentos esencial), estar al aire libre (hacer picnics, chapotear en el lago, sentarme en la playa, no aventuras fuera de la red, piense en "glamping", no en acampar), planificar eventos a gran escala (bodas, reuniones, reuniones sociales familiares de la banda), pasar tiempo con la familia de la banda de NBHS (mi hija es la tambor mayor este año) y, siempre, estar con mi familia. ¡Espero trabajar con usted y tener un gran año en Woodfin!

Woodfin Elementary is excited to welcome back new and returning staff! Hello, I am Gail Buckner. I am very happy to return to Woodfin Elementary as your Instructional Coach. During my career I've taught every grade Pre-K to Post Graduate, served as a school librarian and as a school and district administrator. 2nd graders, 5th graders, and College Seniors hold a special place in my teacher heart. In my "free" time I like to read (historical fiction is my favorite but I make myself read at least one informational text per month), bake (dessert is an essential food group), be outdoors (picnicking, splashing in the lake, sitting on the beach - not off grid adventures, think "glamping" not camping), plan large scale events (weddings, reunions, band family social gatherings), spend time with the NBHS Band Family (my daughter is the Drum Major this year), and always, be with my family. Looking forward to working with you and a great year at Woodfin!

Hello Parents and Guardians, Our first two Saturday Make Your Mark! camps were a great success, and we have four more camps on April 13th, 20th, 27th, and May 4th. During these camps, students will work on making different products (board games, electronic music, and weavings), and learning about how these different products are made. Students can attend camp at any one of these six middle schools: Erwin, North Buncombe, Owen, Reynolds, Valley Springs, or Enka. On April 13th and 27th, students will take a bus from their middle school campus to one of three field trip locations (Moogseum, Center for Craft, or Well Played Board Game Cafe) and back to their middle school. You can find more details about the camps here. https://www.rooted.place/make-your-mark/ If you are interested in signing your student or students up for one or more of these camps, please fill out this form prior to April 10th. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc9oNAjN73Ukk8XzIGiDyE-AVW2IwxpHCZ41Ja6Jt2pe-fftg/viewform
