Important Calendar Update for Irwin County Schools :
Due to the unusual number of weather days this year, Irwin County Schools have amended the district calendar.
Friday, March 14th will now be a regular school day for students.
Please update your calendars and ensure your child is present. We appreciate your understanding and support as we work to make up for lost instructional time.
Thank you for your cooperation!
UPCOMING CHANGES: In our ongoing commitment to keeping students and staff safe, the Irwin County School District will implement a CLEAR or MESH bag policy starting the first day of the upcoming school year.
We understand that students involved in sports, band, and other extracurricular activities may need to bring items like bat bags, instrument cases, or overnight bags. Procedures will be in place to ensure these items are properly checked or securely stored during the school day.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work together to prioritize safety on our campuses.
