Good morning, BCS Families and Teammates.

Our BCS Transportation teams have been out early this morning monitoring travel conditions. Due to light snow sticking in some parts of our area this morning, the North Buncombe, Enka, and Erwin Districts of Buncombe County Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay for students today, Monday Nov. 10, 2025. All other BCS districts are on a regular schedule. Again, this is a 2-hour delay for the North Buncombe, Enka, and Erwin districts only. Buses will not travel on icy roads. This delayed start will give DOT crews extra time to treat any problem areas, and allow for travel with more daylight.

BCS Teammates should report to work at their normal time, if they are able to travel safely. Teammates who will be arriving at work later than their normal start time should communicate with their principal or supervisor.

Breakfast will be served to students when they arrive at school.

While conditions are forecast to improve, BCS Transportation teams will continue to assess conditions. We will update you should we need to further alter today’s school schedule.

Again, this is a two hour delay for the North Buncombe, Enka and Erwin districts only. All other BCS districts are on a regular schedule.

Thank you. Be safe, and have a good day!


Buenos días, familias y compañeros de BCS.,

Nuestros equipos de Transporte de las Escuelas del Condado de Buncombe (BCS) han estado fuera desde temprano esta mañana monitoreando las condiciones de viaje. Debido a la ligera nevada que se está acumulando en algunas partes de nuestra área esta mañana, los distritos de North Buncombe, Enka y Erwin  operarán con un retraso de 2 horas para los estudiantes hoy, lunes 10 de noviembre de 2025.

Todos los demás distritos de BCS seguirán su horario regular.
Repetimos: este es un retraso de 2 horas solo para los distritos de North Buncombe, Enka y Erwin.

Los autobuses no viajarán por carreteras con hielo. Este retraso permitirá que los equipos del Departamento de Transporte (DOT) tengan tiempo adicional para tratar las áreas problemáticas y permitirá viajar con más luz del día.

Los empleados de BCS deben presentarse a trabajar a su hora normal, si pueden viajar con seguridad. Aquellos que lleguen más tarde de lo habitual deben comunicarse con su director o supervisor.

El desayuno se servirá a los estudiantes cuando lleguen a la escuela.

Aunque se espera que las condiciones mejoren, los equipos de Transporte de BCS continuarán evaluando la situación. Les informaremos si es necesario realizar más cambios en el horario escolar de hoy.

Una vez más, este es un retraso de dos horas para los distritos de North Buncombe, Enka y Erwin únicamente. Todos los demás distritos de BCS siguen en horario regular.

Gracias. ¡Manténganse seguros y que tengan un buen día!
