Teacher Bio

Hello!

I'm Ms. Erica Starr, one of the EC Teachers at PFE. This will be my seventh year teaching, and fourth year teaching in Transylvania County Schools.

In my free time, I enjoy taking my dogs to the dog park, and hanging out with my fiancé and our 3 cats. I love to do yoga, knit, and try new places around town. As a Seattle native for 24 years, I enjoy watching football and rooting for the Seattle Seahawks.

Welcome to My Class!

I am a certified Exceptional Children's General Curriculum Teacher, and work primarily with students in 3rd and 5th grades. I assist students with Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals in the areas of Reading, Writing, and Math. Additionally, I assist students in learning Social/Emotional skills and support learning in the classroom.

I believe that all children, regardless of ability, are capable of achieving academic achievement and success. My goals as an educator are to promote a positive learning environment, provide a foundation of knowledge and inspire lifelong learners, and help students build a growth mindset. I expect all students to word hard, maintain a safe and positive learning environment, and try their best.
