Hello! My name is Melissa Anders and I an excited to work with you! I was born in Columbia South Carolina, but relocated to the Asheville area at age 5 growing up in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina. I am a mother of three children whom are all grown..Sure do miss them! When I am not at THS , I love spending my time crafting, combing the beaches for unique sea shells, or relaxing on the open seas.

I earned my Bachelors in Mathematics Education from University of North Carolina Charlotte. Before becoming an educator I spent almost 18 years in the medical field/nursing and still continue to work with pediatrics during my summer months. I believe that learning mathematics is important to our daily life, and that it can be applicable to any field a student may find themselves pursuing in their future.

During the 2021-2022 school year, I will be teaching NC Math I & Math II and also the Student Council Advisory here at THS, if you're interested in being a part of a great team we would love for you to join our StuCo Team:)
