Teacher Of The Year

Mary Jo Kuechenmeister teacher of the year.

My name is Mary Jo Kuechenmeister and I teach First Grade at North Cove Elementary. 

I earned a BA in Literature from Montreat College and a BS in Elementary Education from Western Carolina University.  I’ve worked in the school system for 22 years (in Buncombe and McDowell) and the best thing about my job is the little ones who share my classroom!
