Due to a major water main break on the Eastern end of the county, East Yancey Middle School will have a Remote Learning Day starting at 10:00 am and Burnsville Elementary School teachers will call students starting at 10:00 am to check in on Friday May 9, 2025.
Parents, we thank you for working with us as we deal with this infrastructure issue today.
Nike shoes have begun to arrive! Huge thanks to Mission Christmas and RISE Disaster Relief & Recovery for providing them to YCS students and employees! The shoes are amazing!
Come work for Yancey County Schools!
All BES parents have been notified of the pick up procedure at Shoal Creek Baptist Church. Thank you for your patience as BES staff takes every precaution to ensure students are signed out correctly and safely.
Due to a possible gas leak at Burnsville Elementary School from construction, we are releasing those students early. All other schools will stay in session as normal for the remainder of the day. All students are safe and accounted for and are being taken to Shoal Creek Baptist Church. Please be patient as a system for pickup will take a bit to get into place. We will keep everyone updated as we receive them.
Come check out all the beautiful plants our students have grown!
Thank you for your dedication to our students and for making Yancey County Schools an awesome place to be! We appreciate all of you!
