Ms. Heather Earp
Hi- I am a native of Johnston County and attended SSS before graduating from the NC School of Science and Math. After high school, I attended East Carolina University as a NC Teaching Fellow, where I obtained my BS degree in Science Education. This is my 18th year in the Science Department at West Johnston High School. I am a proud Kenan Fellow through NCSU, having completed research and curriculum development on Sustainable Forestry and Biotechnology, and obtained my NC K-12 AIG licensure through Campbell University. I have also been a Reader for the AP Environmental Science exam since 2010, and a Table Leader for the exam since 2020.
Outside of school, I love to travel, and have traveled with WJ students since 2016. Our upcoming planned trips are to Scotland/Ireland, and Germany/Switzerland/Italy/France. I spend most of my weekends and summers as a volunteer with Carolina Tiger Rescue, where I am a tour guide, summer camp counserlor, and adoptive parent. I am also a weaver, and work as a crasftman in the NC State Fair's Village of Yesteryear.
Ms. Earp :)

Upon receiving information from the NCDHHS, we consulted with the Johnston County Public Health Department on the impact these updates will have on our school system. This ongoing collaboration continues to guide our decision-making as students return to classrooms for in-person instruction.
