The elementary schools in Avery County Schools were recently recognized with the 2025‑2026 North Carolina Academic Growth Awards for meeting or exceeding academic growth expectations under the state accountability system. These awards highlight the dedication, effort, and progress students and educators have made throughout the school year. Student growth measures the academic progress students make over time, and earning this award reflects strong instruction and a commitment to continuous improvement.
Congratulations to our elementary schools for this well‑deserved recognition and for fostering academic achievement across our district!
