TC Henderson Elementary students took part in NC Crunch today-- a program that creates awareness of local produce. The apples they "crunched" were from Henderson County. Then the students voted on which one they liked the best. #TeachingEveryoneTakesEveryone
TC Henderson Students enjoy the beautiful fall weather and leaves!
School Highlight at TC Henderson Elementary: Teachers and students were busy learning today-- they also enjoyed making pumpkin art!
School Spotlight: TC Henderson students get to watch bees and read books! An observation hive is encased in the library as part of science at this cool elementary school.
Many North Carolina colleges and universities participate in C2C (countdown to college) by waiving application fees during College Application Week (CAW), which begins on October 21 at 7:30 a.m. and ends on October 27 at 11:59 p.m.
Students, the hard part is behind you. Introducing #NCCollegeConnect.
With North Carolina’s new simplified application program, public high school seniors with a weighted 2.8 GPA or above can easily apply to participating UNC System universities and their local North Carolina community college.
All eligible students have to do is complete a simplified application, maintain their GPA, and meet graduation and UNC System requirements. That's right - no essays!

Dear TCS Family,
As you are aware, our community has been hit hard from Hurricane Helene. The majority of our county is without power and cell service is very limited. Transylvania County Schools will be CLOSED through Friday, October 4, 2024; with NO extra-curricular activities, including sports. We will reassess the situation as the week progresses and send out further information on Friday, Oct. 4 for the following week. For community feeding information, please look at Transylvania County Facebook or tune in to WGCR or WSQL. Let's continue to be better together and support one another. Please share this information with your neighbors and help us spread the word. Take care and stay safe.
There will be no school on Monday, September 30th. We will provide an update tomorrow as we receive more information. Stay Safe.
