Message to Parents
Dear Weaverville Elementary Families,
Welcome to Weaverville Elementary School!
On a daily basis we provide an excellent academic program to all of our students. We are accredited by AdvancED. We serve approximately 300 students in Second through Fourth Grade.
We utilize the Common Core State and NC Essential Standards curriculum for our academic work. In addition, we strive to provide each child 21st Century technology skills. All classrooms are equipped with a teacher station comprised of a document camera, laptop, projector, and SMART whiteboard. All students at Weaverville Elementary are assigned an electronic device that they use when assigned by the teacher in order to further extend learning. A balanced approach towards utilizing technology compared to more traditional instructional strategies helps to create a well-rounded learning environment. Second-grade students utilize iPads. Third-grade and Fourth-grade students use laptop-style devices.
In addition, our students participate in physical activity 150 minutes each week, including physical education classes and recess. Students also participate in weekly instruction in music, art, and media.
We update our school webpage and Facebook (link is on homepage) with events and activities frequently. For up to date information, check the sites regularly.
It is a privilege to serve the students and staff at Weaverville Elementary. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Mary Nichols
