My name is Erica Battle and I am proud to be serving as the BCATS teacher beginning in the 2017-2018 school year. In the past, I was the English IV teacher at Community High School. This is my 8th year as a CHS Eagle. I have been teaching in Buncombe County since 2001. I am certified in grades K-6; 6-12th grade English; and 21st Century Literacy Coaching. Previously, I have taught elementary school, middle school, and have served as a 21st Century Literacy Coach, and Instructional Coach at Community High School. Additionally, I have coached cross-country and track at the middle school level.
Outside of school:
* My husband and I have 2 sons and 2 daughters. We also have 3 grandsons, 1 granddaughter, a grand-cat, and grand-dog.
* I have a hound dog named Dan.
* I enjoy running and try to do two marathons a year.
* Coffee is my friend!
* Fall is my favorite season because I'm a college football fan...Go Auburn...War Eagle!
