3rd grade WES students found a genius way to reuse the water bottles from their classrooms. They created air propelled cars out of bottles, caps, straws and balloons and they finished up the week with a bottle car race! #wolverinepride #weareerwin #bcsfamily
Happy Veterans Day to all of all Wolverine family members who have served or are serving in the military. We appreciate all you have done, are doing or will do for our Country.
Ms. Sullivan was so happy to see all of her students for enrichment classes on Monday. 1st graders worked on classifying animals by examining their similarities and differences. 2nd graders started working with Sudoku Puzzles. 3rd graders played a brain game to develop listening and visual-spatial skills. 4th graders are learning algebra using the hands-on equations program! #BCSfamily #Woodfinelementary

Students were welcomed back by Erwin High School football players, we had a glow-in-the-dark dance party in the gym and students got to take home goodie bags with craft supplies. There were smiles all around :) We look forward to seeing everyone next week!!!! #wolverinepride #bcsfamily #togetherwerise
Good morning, BCS Families and Teammates. Thank you for your strength and resilience in this time of recovery. As you are able, please check your email for an update on the BCS reopening plan.
Woodfin Elementary had a small gathering of Woodfin Wolverines in the park last Saturday. Students were able to get books, snacks and participate in some games and art activities! It was so great to see so many from our community back together again, reunited. We look forward to gathering together again soon. We miss our Wolverines! #BCSfamily #Asheville strong #Togetherwerise

Hello, BCS families and teammates! Visit bit.ly/BCSlinks to see the latest community resources. #GraceAndStrength #TogetherWeRise
BCS families and teammates, thank you for all of your efforts at home and in the community to recover from the devastation of the hurricane. Our hearts continue to be with you.
We want to let you know Buncombe County Schools will remain closed until it is safe to open. That will require power and water restored to our buildings. We are grateful to the repair crews who are working hard to make that happen. However, there is substantial work to be done. To help families plan, we will give you adequate notice when we know a date when it is safe for Buncombe County Schools to reopen.
Please continue to take care of yourself and your family. Our theme for this year is “Together We Rise” - and recovering for this storm will demonstrate that. Thank you so much!
Based on the Hurricane's tremendous impacts to our families and neighborhoods, the decision has been made to close all Buncombe County Schools for the entire week, Monday Sept. 30 through Friday Oct. 4. These will be annual leave days for staff. In the days, weeks, and months ahead, the school system is committed to continue supporting our families and staff. We hope you and your family continue to be safe. We'll continue to keep you updated as our team works to safely reopen our schools. Thank you.
As our area continues to cope with impacts of Hurricane Helene, Buncombe County Schools will be closed Mon 9/30 and Tue 10/1. Both days are annual leave days. As our school system continues working with local emergency management officials, we will keep you updated about schedules for the coming days. Please stay safe!
School consolidation study surveys are open through Sept. 30. Scroll down to "NEWS" for more info.
