Yancey County Schools
Improvements Over the Past Few Years
Based on the test results of the 2015-2016 school year, Yancey County Schools (YCS) ranked 6th highest in the state out of 115 public school systems.
Based on the 2015-16 NC Career and Technical Education (CTE) Credentialing Data Report, Yancey County Schools was 2nd in the state with 42.4 percent of students earning credentials for their knowledge in hands-on learning.
For the 2016-2017 school year YCS was tied with the 8th best overall test scores in the state of North Carolina.
In the 2017 NC Roadmap of Needs, Sponsored by the Public School Forum of NC and the NC Center for Afterschool Programs, YCS is ranked as the 8th best in the state. The Roadmap of Needs considers 7 educational criteria in determining their rankings. In the 2016 edition Yancey County Schools was ranked 13th. In the 2014th edition of the Roadmap of Needs, Yancey County Schools was listed at 16th. Three years ago the 2013 edition listed Yancey County Schools as 24th. This is a tremendous steady improvement over the past few years.

This fall all nine of our schools received the new NC Academic Growth Award for the 2016-2017 school year. This is a new award presented by NC Superintendent Mr. Mark Johnson for schools that met or exceeded growth. YCS was one of only a few in the region to have all their schools honored.
