The Banks County High School football program has launched a new initiative to support young athletes in the community by offering free Youth Speed and Agility Training sessions. These sessions are open to all interested students and provide an opportunity to improve athletic performance while connecting with the high school program.

Banks County High School students went on an epic journey to Greece during spring break.  The trip was led by Banks County teachers Gary Goodson and Heather Martin.  The students who attended were Noah Williams, Zack Hunnicutt, Jackie McCain, Kristin Linderman, Luke Linderman, Luke Simmons, Thomas Finch, and Hunter Sisk.

Banks County Primary, Middle, and High Schools will observe the celebration from May 5–9, while Banks County Elementary School will celebrate May 12–16 to accommodate state testing schedules.

Banks County School System recently celebrated its annual Special Olympics, known as “the Best Day of the Year,” with over 80 student-athletes participating in track and field events and activities at the Special Olympics Village. The event was made possible through strong support from families, staff, and numerous community sponsors, creating a day filled with joy, encouragement, and celebration.

Banks County High School will conduct a lockdown drill this morning, April 15, 2025.

Please be assured this is a routine safety exercise and is being carried out in close coordination with the Banks County Sheriff's Office to ensure that our schools remain safe for our students, staff, and community.

Want to give a special shout-out to a Banks County teacher?

Whether it’s a current teacher or one from the past who made a lasting impact, this is your chance to say THANK YOU! As we prepare for Teacher Appreciation Week, we invite parents and families to complete a quick form to share their appreciation.
Your kind words can make a big difference—and it’s a wonderful way to celebrate the amazing educators who have shaped the lives of our students.

We are closely monitoring the weather in our area. There is a line of storms that may move through around dismissal time. Safety is our top priority, and depending on the timing of the weather, we may delay dismissal by a few minutes to ensure all students and staff remain safe. Please use caution and stay weather-aware this afternoon. We appreciate your patience and support!

Join our team! Learn about open positions, talk to district and school leaders, and become part of our story!

Congratulations to Banks County High School’s Mr. and Miss BCHS for the Class of 2025:  Cam Cooper and Lauren Kate Edwards.
