Welcome to North Buncombe Middle School!  I'm excited to be working as Principal at our great school.  I enjoy working with middle school students as they learn and grow in this important time in their life.

Prior to working at North Buncombe Middle, I was a middle school teacher and administrator in Madison County for 18 years. In 2020 I began working in Buncombe County Schools and have served as assistant principal at A.C. Reynolds High School and most recently as Principal at Weaverville Primary School.

I'm excited to be at North Buncombe and look forward to interacting with the staff, the students and the families of this great school community.  I look forward to helping your child grow academically, socially and emotionally.

It is my goal for all students to be excited about coming to school, every day!  I will work hard to create a safe and welcoming school environment and will work hard to continue building on the successes of our school. 

Please feel free to contact me through email, phone or visit the school.  I look forward to a great year!  Go Blackhawks!

Nicholas Honeycutt, Principal

Greetings!

My name is Eddie Burchfiel.  I have the privilege of serving as North Buncombe Middle School’s half-time Assistant Principal.  I retired as a Principal in Buncombe County Schools in 2018 after 31 years as an educator, over 18 of those years as a principal.  

My wife recently retired as a fifth-grade teacher at Koontz Intermediate School.  We are the proud parents of two adult children.  Our daughter is currently in graduate school at the University of Georgia and our son is an engineer in Raleigh after recently graduating from North Carolina State University.

I greatly enjoy working with the students, faculty, staff and parents of North Buncombe Middle School.  I am looking forward to a fantastic 2024-2025 school year!
