About
Nestled among the mountains of a picturesque rural community in Western North Carolina, Andrews Elementary is one of the largest Pre-K through 5th-grade elementary schools in Cherokee County.
AES is dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles. All students receive a free breakfast and lunch. Teachers have high expectations for their students and teach desired behaviors using our PBIS "CATS" matrix

We recognize SuperCATS who exemplify what it means to be a Wildcat through special recognition each week and on The "Wall of Fame" that hangs in our hallway.
At AES we feel integrating technology within our instructional processes is important. We have a 1:1 Chromebook ratio. All of our classrooms have interactive Promethean Boards or Smartboards to further engage our students in their learning.
Andrews Elementary has an experienced staff that are licensed in the areas they teach. Faculty and staff strive to meet high academic standards as they continue to focus on the needs of all students. Through systematic and regular assessment of our students and ourselves, Andrews Elementary will continue to be a great place to learn.
