Hello! My name is Mrs. Surrett, and I’m a first grade teacher at Woodfin Elementary. I grew up in Buncombe County, going to school within the Erwin district, and then studied Literature and Education at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. Teaching runs in my family—my mom and dad were teachers, and so were my grandma and great-great-great grandma!
At home, I have two wonderful sons, two playful cats, and a fantastic husband. I enjoy spending time with my family, going to the theater, trying out new restaurants, and exploring the great outdoors.
I became a teacher because I enjoy helping kids and making a difference in our community. My goal is to build strong, lasting friendships with my students and help them develop a love for learning that will stay with them forever.
