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
