Educator gets surprise sendoff
FLETCHER, North Carolina (WLOS) A local longtime educator received a surprise sendoff Thursday. Co-workers and friends gathered at Fletcher Park to show their appreciation for Avery’s Creek Elementary School principal Denise Montgomery, who is preparing to retire.

Buncombe County Schools Director of Testing Steve Earwood said because “many students have had their education disrupted,” the district is preparing for lower test scores.
