Missy Smart

Welcome to the Soar team! My name is Mrs. Missy Smart. I teach 7th Grade Science. My fellow team members are Mrs. Beth Lane (English/Language Arts), Mrs. Kristen Wells (Math), and Ms. Erin Boyle (Social Studies).

I began teaching in 1995 after graduating from Western Carolina University. Since 2006, I have been here at North Buncombe Middle School. I am a product of Buncombe County Schools, graduating from Enka High School. My husband and I have called this wonderful community home for many years where we have raised our three children.

From a young age, I loved science and math and pretended to be a schoolteacher. As a teenager, I worked with kids at my afterschool job. I enjoy both so much, my career choice became obvious. I have seen a lot of change in all these years, from chalkboards to whiteboards to Smartboards. Teaching is both challenging and rewarding, and I have never regretted a minute of it.

The digital platform that I use is Canvas. If you ask your student to log into Canvas, you can view your student's daily assignments.
