Ashley Hager

Media Coordinator

After being a classroom teacher for almost 20 years, teaching every grade from kindergarten to fourth grade, I am so excited to be the first media coordinator/ librarian for CCS. I am a hometown girl who graduated from East Gaston High School. I have a Bachelor's degree from Appalachian State (Go Mountaineers!) and a Master of Curriculum and Instruction from Montreat College. I am married with two very active daughters. If you can’t find me, look on the softball field or dance studio! I am an active member of Grace Baptist Church where I love to worship and serve my Lord, Jesus Christ. A few of my favorite books from childhood are Mouse and the Motorcycle, Leo the Late Bloomer, and The Witches by Roald Dahl. I have many favorite authors including Patricia Polacco, AVI, Kate DiCamillio, Kristin Hannah and Gordon Korman. While I love sitting in a cozy chair inside or outside by the pool reading, I also have a bit of an adventurous side, with hobbies of camping and hiking with my family. It is my belief that every child can learn to love to read if they just find the right book to get them started. As J.K. Rowling says “If you don’t like to read, you haven’t found the right book.”
