Barnardsville Elementary

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.

BCS families and staff, please see this video message from Superintendent Dr. Rob Jackson about Buncombe County Schools’ ongoing recovery efforts in response to Hurricane Helene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSt6DDLT8hw

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!

Good morning Barnardsville families! We have food and resources available at school. We have set this up as a drive through service to keep things running more efficiently. Please stay in your car and follow the drive through directions and someone will bring you what you need. Below is a supply menu. We also have a medical team here for part of the day. Love, Mrs Houchard

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!
