On Monday, October 14, 2024, McDowell County Schools will operate on a regular schedule with limited bus routes and some designated community stops. For a detailed list of the routes, please review the bus lists provided on the McDowell County Schools website. To ensure the safety of your children, parents or guardians should always remain present to supervise at each of our community bus stops. Safety is, and always will be, our top priority.
Students and staff living in the affected area of our county, please work individually with principals should your commute require additional time in the mornings.
I am also happy to report that our athletic practices will resume on Monday for our student-athletes in our middle and high schools. Fans, we ask for your patience while we allow our teams to begin practicing, and our administrators an opportunity to adjust the Fall schedules. As soon as we have game dates available we will post them for you on our websites.
