TC Scholars and Memorable Educators 2023
On the evening of May 18th at Brevard High School, 159 seniors, juniors and sophomores were honored as Transylvania County Scholars, Junior Marshals, and scholarship winners at the 40th Annual Transylvania County Scholars Recognition Evening. Transylvania County Scholars are graduating seniors who have earned the highest graduation honor conferred by the school system for maintaining an overall GPA of 3.8 weighted and 3.5 unweighted. Sophomores and juniors recognized are the highest-ranking students in their class whose academic records indicate they are on track to graduate as TC Scholars. Junior Marshals are those with very strong academic records who will lead the procession at graduation. During the program, college scholarships totaling over $62,000 were presented from a number of community organizations. To conclude the evening, 30 individuals were named as Memorable Educators by senior scholars in recognition of the special inspiration they had given during the students’ educational experience. Congratulations to all!

Free Summer Lunch Program 2023
Beginning the week of June 12, Transylvania County Schools will again provide its Free Summer Lunch Program. The program will consist of seven meal sites with varying dates and times of service throughout the summer. Meals are free to all children of Transylvania County under the age of 18. Children do not have to qualify for free or reduced lunch to participate and do not have to attend Transylvania County Schools. We ask that families limit their visit to one meal site each day, but families may use any of the sites. Remember, no meal sites will be serving the week of July 3‑7; service will resume on Monday, July 10. Please visit the School Nutrition website at https://bit.ly/TCSSummerLunch for contact and schedule information.
