Due to the winter weather storm and forecasted overnight freezing temperatures, Lincoln County Schools will be closed tomorrow. These conditions are expected to create black ice and hazardous travel conditions, making it unsafe for buses, staff, and families to be on the roads.
The safety of our students and employees is our top priority, and this decision was made out of an abundance of caution. We will continue to monitor conditions and communicate any updates regarding school operations. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

3rd-grade students in Mrs. Whitley's class enjoyed using skittles to practice plot lines in math! Students sorted candies by color, recording data in tally charts, and graphing the results on line plots. This hands-on activity teaches data interpretation, such as identifying the "most," "least," and "equal" amounts.

In coordination with local emergency management and in accordance with Governor Brian Kemp’s State of Emergency declaration, Lincoln County Schools will transition to a Learn From Home Day on Monday, January 26, 2026.
This decision follows close consultation with public safety officials. Although the forecast predicts sunshine by Monday morning, extreme overnight lows in the teens and 20s present a significant risk of refreezing and "black ice." Our primary concern is the safe operation of our school bus fleet, as these high-profile vehicles face unique safety challenges on icy bridges and secondary roads.
Instructional Details:
Packet Distribution: Physical learning packets are being sent home with students today, Friday, January 23.
Absences: Students who are absent today may collect their materials from the front office once normal operations resume.
Grading: To alleviate stress on our families, these packets are for remediation and skills reinforcement only and will not be graded.
The district will continue to monitor road conditions throughout the day Monday. A follow-up announcement regarding Tuesday’s schedule will be released by 4:00 PM on Monday via our primary notification channels.

We want to give a BIG thank you to Amanda Sava, Meteorologist at the National Weather Service for teaching our 4th grade students more about the weather, what technology/tools are used to observe weather, how to read weather maps, and how to prepare for any inclement weather that may head our way! ❄️


Lincoln County Schools is actively monitoring the weather forecast for the upcoming weekend. The safety of our students and staff remains our highest priority. We are working in close coordination with local emergency management officials to evaluate potential impacts. Should any adjustments to the school schedule be necessary for Monday, January 26, families will be notified promptly via our mass notification system (phone/text), social media, district websites, and local news outlets.
