Sarah Peterson

I have been a School Counselor since 2004, and have worked in all of the levels; elementary, middle, and high school.  I started working in Buncombe County Schools at Erwin High in 2017 and I joined the faculty of Cane Creek Middle School in 2025. I am the proud product of public schools, and both of my children attend a BCS school.

I earned my Bachelors degree at the University of Florida - Go Gators! (National Champs!) and I have a Master of Science in School Counseling from UNC-Greensboro and a Master of Science in Human Resources from Western Carolina University. 

I am passionate about helping my students find their path and become productive members of society in a career they value and enjoy. I care about helping students with social & emotional needs, so that they can thrive academically. I am eager to help my students at CCMS prepare for high school and beyond. 

When I am not at school, I am either cheering on my son at a high school soccer game, cheering on my daughter at a dance competition or recital, at the pool, reading a book, attempting to learn French, traveling, hiking, or spending time with my pets.
