Congratulations to Ms. Lunsford, school librarian, and Ms. Lissa, art teacher, on becoming a National Board Certified Teacher. Congratulations to AIG Teacher Ms. Swann for renewing her certification. National Board certification is a rigorous process in which educators plan in-depth lessons for students multiple learning ways, reflect and write extensively on their teaching and take a test in their specific content area. The certification must also be renewed every 5 years. According to the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, “National Board Certification is the most respected professional certification available in education and provides numerous benefits to teachers, students and schools.”

Kindergarten students in Mrs. Honey and Miss Banks class built bridges during a stem lesson this week. Students have been reading the Three Billy Goats Gruff during literacy and were challenged to build a bridge strong enough for the billy goats to cross without getting eaten by the troll. Students enjoyed using different materials and working as a team. #WoodfinES #BCS #BCSAdvantage #WNC #handsonlearning #STEM #the828isgreat #AshevilleMoms #PublicSchoolProud @roblovesrene

"Absolutely Spectacular" is how one student described her teacher, Mrs. Amy Clouse, who has been chosen Woodfin's 2024 Teacher of the Year! Teaching colleagues describe Mrs. Clouse as an "encourager" and "tenacious" in advocating for her students. We are proud Ms. Clouse is part of our great teaching team! #WoodfinES #ErwinStrong #BCS #BCS #Asheville #WNC #the828isgreat #PublicSchoolProud #NCPublicSchools #TOY #TeacheroftheYear #2024TOY @roblovesrene

Mrs. Luther’s class enjoyed making slime in the STEM lab with Ms. Ledford. Each group used different ingredients which made different consistencies. We love hands-on learning at Woodfin! #WoodfinES #BCS #WeAreBCS #NCPublicSchools #handsonlearning #science #Asheville #slime @roblovesrene
