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.
Due to the Winter Weather Advisory and sub-freezing temperatures creating travel concerns, Wilkes County Schools will have a Virtual Learning Day on Monday, January 26. All Wilkes County Schools campuses will be closed to students, faculty, and staff. Students should log into Google Classroom to access assignments or check for any work sent home by teachers, and teachers will communicate with students and families through Rooms. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. Any additional updates will be shared through our messaging system, the Wilkes County Schools website, social media accounts, Rooms, and local media outlets.
