The Wise County School Board was treated to a performance from the 7th and 8th grade choir from L.F. Addington at tonight's board meeting.

At its February meeting, the Wise County School Board enjoyed a presentation from Wise County Career-Tech Students who participated in a competition called "Throwing Shade" in which the students discussed energy loss in homes and how thermal drones can be used to determine where energy loss occurs. The team won an Entrepreneurial Award for the best business concept. Congratulations to these young men!

Important Announcement: School Closure Thursday Good afternoon, I am writing to inform everyone that Wise County Schools will be closed on Thursday, March 7, 2024. The decision to close schools for the day stems from careful consideration of the logistical challenges posed by having both the Eastside Lady Spartans and the Central Lady Warriors Girls’ Basketball teams in the VHSL Class 1A and 2A state championship games in Richmond, Virginia. Ensuring the safety of our students and staff is paramount, particularly considering the limited availability of bus drivers and substitute teachers to cover classes on Thursday. In small communities like ours, often, teachers are coaches and coaches are bus drivers. It truly takes a collaborative effort to run our school system. Further, we understand the excitement and pride associated with such significant events, and we want to ensure that our students, families, and staff have the opportunity to support our teams. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. Warmest regards, Dr. Mike Goforth Division Superintendent Wise County Schools
