Wilkes County Schools is committed to providing a safe and family-friendly environment at all athletic events. To help maintain that atmosphere, please note that students in 8th grade or below will not be allowed to enter the game without a parent or adult. Students who are dropped off without a parent will be required to call their parent to pick them up.
Students are also expected to remain seated and watch the game. No roaming or loitering will be permitted. As a reminder, per our student handbooks, students may face school consequences for inappropriate behavior at any school-sponsored event.
Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping our events safe, positive, and enjoyable for everyone.

Washington-Wilkes Elementary School conducted our required intruder drill this morning in compliance with Georgia law. We are proud of how well our students responded and followed procedures. The drill was carried out smoothly and provided us with another opportunity to practice our safety measures.
Student and staff safety remains our highest priority. These drills are an important part of being prepared, and we encourage you to talk with your child about the importance of practicing so that we are all ready in the event of an emergency.

This is a reminder that our school buses are equipped with stop-arm cameras to help keep students safe as they get on and off the bus. Under Georgia’s Addy’s Law (HB 409), drivers who pass a stopped school bus while the stop arm is extended and red lights are flashing can be charged with a high and aggravated misdemeanor, face a minimum fine of $1,000, and up to 12 months in jail. This law was created to protect children across Georgia. We appreciate your help in keeping our students safe by staying alert and always stopping for school buses.

Wilkes County School Nutrition is pleased to announce that we will continue participating in the USDA’s Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) through the National School Lunch Program for the 2025–2026 school year.
What does this mean for your family?
Every student enrolled in Wilkes County Schools from Pre-K through 12th grade will receive both breakfast and lunch at no cost each school day.
CEP allows eligible schools to provide free, nutritious meals to all students regardless of household income. No action is required from parents or guardians—no applications to complete and no meal fees to pay. Just one more way we’re working to support student health and academic success.
A la carte items (such as ice cream, chips, beverages, etc.) will be available for purchase at all schools. Students must have money in hand or funds in their account to buy these items. Payments for a la carte items, second meals, or any prior meal balances can be made in person with cash or check, or online through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Elizabeth Bohler with the Wilkes County School Nutrition Department at
bohlere@wilkes.k12.ga.us or 706-678-2718.
