"Great small school! The teacher-student ratio is that of a private school. Reconsider a move to the Woodfin area just for K-4! Avery's Park, a wonderful playground, is conveniently located behind the school. Up and coming area!"

"Woodfin Elementary School is a wonderful small school. The children are challenged to further themselves. My son has excelled in the individualized learning environment. The child/teacher ratio is excellent both for above average learners as well as below average learners. All children are encouraged to do their best and to help each other. There is a great sense of community here. Woodfin Elementary is a great benefit both for the community and for the school system as a whole."

"Woodfin Elementary is a gem of the Buncombe County School System. The teachers are attentive, caring and always welcoming of a parent volunteer. This school has the private school ratio with a public school price. All the staff is excellent to work with. I especially like that the teachers encourage community in the classrooms. A very safe school with Police next door and fire close as well. My son has excelled in the loving environment. In my research for schools, Woodfin was the best."

"Woodfin Elementary School is a great example of the "little school that could." I have had the pleasure of sending all of my children to Woodfin, and I can say without hesitation that the experience has been excellent. The teachers excel at building the foundation children need in order to succeed in their education. Because of the relatively small class sizes, children receive more individual "one-on-one" time with educators. The school is safe, with the Woodfin PD right next door, and the Woodfin FD right down the street. Teachers are vigilant and attentive to their surroundings, which is important to me. I've never had any problems communicating with or receiving communication from my children's teachers. Parent volunteers are always welcome and the PTO is very active. I consider my children fortunate to have had such a wonderful little elementary school to attend."
