Hello! My name is Meganne Smith. I have taught in North Carolina schools for fourteen years, in Carteret County. However, I have also been an adjunct English professor at Craven Community College in Havelock and New Bern for four years. The more I experience Craven County, the more I love it!

I have a B.A. from the University of Carolina--Chapel Hill and a M.A. in English and Creative Writing from South New Hampshire University. My forte and favorite stuff is English--literature and reading, vocabulary, and, especially, writing. I have a couple of poems published and a Young Adults novel I hope to publish in the near future.

I have three daughters who are not completely grown and left me yet, thankfully! I have a sweet Blue Heeler dog named Arya, too. In my free time, I walk, especially near the water (I live on the Newport River), I play piano, and I read. I also love to eat delicious food of any and all kinds!

I am looking forward so much to this 2021-2022 school year. It is joyous to be in the presence of students and staff again. I have missed school and all of the wonderful experiences and opportunities that being together in this environment of learning affords to us.
