The Spring Book Fair is Coming!

The Wilkes County Lady Tigers will compete in the GHSA State Basketball Championship on Thursday, March 12th, at 1:00 PM at the Macon Coliseum in Macon.
Wilkes County Schools will observe a Virtual Learning Day on Thursday, March 12th, in place of the previously scheduled early release day. This will allow students, families, and staff the opportunity to travel to Macon and support the Lady Tigers as they compete for a state title. Principals and directors will provide guidance for staff regarding expectations for Thursday. Friday will remain a scheduled In-Service day for staff, and students will not report.
These young women have represented Wilkes County with pride both on the basketball court and in the classroom. Their dedication, teamwork, and commitment reflect the support of their families, coaches, teachers, and the entire Wilkes County community.
We encourage our community to come out and support the Lady Tigers as they compete for a state championship. We hope to see Tiger fans filling the stands in Macon as we rally behind our team.

Thank you again for your time and participation.
We ask families to use their best judgment if travel conditions in their area remain unsafe. If you believe travel is unsafe for your child, please contact your school's office. We also ask for patience with our bus drivers and school staff as they navigate morning routes and arrival procedures with care and caution.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and support as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff.

Wilkes County Schools will continue to monitor for potential winter weather conditions throughout the weekend and road conditions for Monday in coordination with local emergency management and public safety officials. Student and staff safety remains our highest priority. Any changes to school schedules, operations, or extracurricular activities will be communicated to families through our mass notification system (text, email, phone), the Wilkes County Schools App and website, social media, and local media outlets.
