We, at Gouge Elementary, would like all parents to be made aware of what happened with the activity bus on the way back from the field trip today. The brakes overheated, causing smoke to come to the back of the bus. The bus at no time lost the brakes. All students were evacuated from the bus safely. Avery County Schools brought a bus for students and teachers to load until a bus from Mitchell County arrived. Thank you to Avery County Schools!!

Our Mitchell County Schools Facebook page has been "unpublished" because we have been reported as "breaking community standards." We have appealed and requested a review on this decision. Please be patient as we try to regain access to our FB page.
