- I grew up here and was great then. Now I have kids in this school and they have no room or dont even know where to place the students when they have missing classes on their schedule. Also- I think it is rediculous that their schedule does not include any breaks throughout the day besides lunch. Even in the working world, breaks are allowed. All should know breaks are imperative to retaining information and stretching physically promotes learning. This year is a joke- with the new principal!!!!!!!

- Love the school, great county, great teachers, great football team, just love everything about it.
We moved here from out West and you can not compare the schools. Yadkin County schools are the best and we made a great decision to move here because this is a great county to raise a family. Love it here.
