My name is Harriet, and I am a lifelong Johnson City resident and proud Ashley Academy alum, having attended from 4th through 8th grade.

Looking back, what sets Ashley apart is its focus on curiosity and cultivating a lifelong love of learning. With the support of dedicated teachers, my classmates and I were encouraged to advance and excel at our own pace, dive into subjects that sparked our interests—such as building a geodesic dome out of newspaper rolls or filming a morning show set in ancient Mesopotamia, and think critically rather than simply memorize facts.

Another defining aspect of Ashley is the sense of community. Fifteen years after graduating, I’m still connected with former teachers and classmates, and I love seeing the paths we’ve taken and the things we’ve accomplished. At Ashley, we weren’t just classmates—we were part of a close-knit community made possible by small classes and shared experiences across the years.
