Alison Hoffman

 Hi, my name is Alison Hoffman and I'm honored to be a kindergarten teacher at Haw Creek Elementary! Both of my children have attended school here and we live in the community which makes HCES extra special to me.  I've been teaching in Buncombe County since 2006 in 1st grade, 3rd grade, and now kindergarten. I attended Rutgers University and Monmouth University in NJ where I received my Master's degree in elementary education. After graduating, my husband and I decided to move to Asheville. One of my favorite things about teaching is that I have the capacity to create a space where students can enjoy learning and be creative and unique.

I love kindergarten because it is a year for incredible growth. I enjoy being silly and having fun with my class alongside motivating and encouraging them to be lifelong learners. My priority is to make my classroom a comfortable and safe place so students can learn without limits! I look forward to another exciting year!
