About Me: Hello! Welcome to my page. My name is Meredith Sumrell and this is my second year at Western Harnett Middle School.

Extracurriculars: I co-lead the school's "Miles and Smiles" club. We meet after school to engage in physical activity and build relationships. The club is open to all grade levels. The club has ended for the 2020-2021 school year. We would love for you to join us when we start again next school year!

Contact: Please feel free to reach out to me with questions, comments, or concerns! I am most easily reached by email, however, do not hesistate to leave a voicemail for me at the school. I will return your call as soon as possible. I am also happy to arrange an in-person meeting, if desired. Please email me to arrange an appointment.

  • "I also read tons of books so I can figure out what's true and what's fake, which isn't always easy. Books are like truth serum-- if you don't read, you can't figure out what's real." - Rodman Philbrick
