Our kindergarteners had a blast this morning using shaving cream to practice their letter formation. They have learned t,b,f,m and n already. It was definitely a fun and eventful Friday!
Don't forget, Woodfin Wolverine picture day is Monday 9/15!
We are so proud of our Wolverines and proud to be Erwin Warriors! Together, we can climb any mountain and achieve great things side by side.
Today, we take a moment to remember September 11th — a day that forever changed our nation. We honor the memory of those we lost and extend our deepest gratitude to the heroes who stepped forward with courage and selflessness.
As we reflect, we also want to lift up our own hometown heroes who keep our community safe each and every day. A heartfelt thank you to Officer Holden , the Woodfin Police Department, and the Woodfin Fire Department for the sacrifices you make and the care you show to all of us.
We remember. We honor. We are grateful.

Our Wolverine family would like to Welcome Patrick McMurry our new music teacher.
I am going into my 24th year of teaching music. I have a Bachelors in Music from Appalachian State and Masters of Music Education from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I have taught at each of the grade levels during my time, from high school to elementary school. I came to Buncombe County in the Fall of last year, returning to the elementary music classroom after three years at Waynesville Middle in Haywood County. I feel that each student has the right and needs a well rounded education that includes the arts. Music is an essential gateway to all other subjects.
My wife, Sharon, and I live in Arden. We have one son, Noah, who is currently doing his residency for emergency medicine. I love to travel, read, and am an avid fan of college football, basketball, and baseball. I sing in my church choir, play tuba in a brass ensemble, and enjoy keeping up with the latest in all genres of music.
Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to be a part of vibrant community at Woodfin Elementary.

Due to the weather the National Night Out has been postponed until; October 7th, 2025
Our Wolverines welcome or new SRO, Officer Holden. We are very excited she is joining our team.
Officer Holden has worked in law enforcement for 7 years. 4.5 years of those were served as a School Resource Officer at a middle school and DARE instructor for 5th grade. She truly believes being an SRO is the best job in law enforcement!
When not working, Officer Holden enjoys spending time with her 3 children -ages 16, 6 and 3. She especially enjoys hiking, working out, and reading. Her favorite book series is The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson, she often talks in music lyrics, and she's an unofficial coffee connoisseur.

A huge Wolverine welcome to our new Art teacher Erin Seickel. We are very excited to have you as part of our team.
Hello Wolverines!! I have been teaching elementary art since 2009, and have been at Bell & Barnardsville since 2019. This year will be the first that I get to work with the fabulous artists at Woodfin as well! I have a BFA in Film and an MA in Art education from the University of Central Florida and love learning new art skills (pottery!), reading, gardening, and exploring outside! I have a 13 year old son, a 10 year old son, and an almost 4 year old little girl. My husband is a landscape architect in Asheville, and we love hiking, traveling, and camping with our kids and our dogs Kona and Chubbs.
