My name is Mrs. Ashley Jones. I am from Nantahala, NC and graduated from Murphy High School in Murphy, NC. I attended all 4 years of college at Western Carolina University and graduated there in 2011 with a Bachelor's of Science in Biology and a pre-med concentration. I am married and have 3 kids and 1 dog. My son, Noah, is 7 years old and just started 2nd grade. My daughter, Aubrey, is 6  years old and just started 1st grade. My youngest daughter, Brynlee,  just turned 4 and attends the amazing daycare here at SCHS. My dog is a boxer and her name is Jasmine. She's 8 years old and such a sweetheart. I enjoy hiking with my husband, kids, and dog especially in all of the different state parks. I love the mountains of NC and the beach. This is my 7th year teaching here at SCHS. In those 7 years I've taught all 4 grade levels which includes: Biology, Chemistry, Forensics, Earth & Environmental Science, & AP Environmental Science.
