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 an accredited by AdvancED. We serve approximately 370
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 students utilize Chromebooks. Fourth grade students utilize district-provided Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga devices. Weaverville Elementary does not send devices home with students.
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,
Heidi Allison
