A Word From The

"Growth has been the word we have been saying a lot in the White County School District. The great people of White County approved another ESplost, and the School Board has gone to work building a New Transportation center near Tesnatee Gap Elementary. We were able to reroof and add new HVAC to Tesnatee Gap Elementary as well. Growth continued with new Turf on all our fields at the high school with Football/Soccer, Baseball, and Softball all getting upgrades. Also, we are continuing with a New Performing Arts Center that will seat over 700 people. It is an amazing time to be a White County Warrior. "

As the 2022-2023 school year comes to a close, I’d like to thank our students, staff,and community for helping make this a great year. Our school system thrives thanks to the unwavering support of the Board of Education, PTO’s, Booster Clubs, and our entire community.We are grateful for the invaluable contributions made by these groups, which enable us to provide the best possible educational experience for our students.
