School closings and delays for students at Middle College are based upon closing and delay decisions made for base high school districts.
If all Buncombe County Schools are closed, students do not report to Middle College for high school classes.
If a base school district is closed, it will be closed to all students who reside in that district. There will be no announcement specific to Middle College for a closing or delay so students are expected to follow their base school district closing.
For example, if the Owen district is closed, students that live in the Owen district would not report to school.
Middle College classes begin daily at 10 am, so students report for class at 10 am on a two hour delay.
Specific for Middle College, students will not report to school if either their base school or A.B. Tech are closed.
If Middle College students are taking A.B. Tech courses and Middle College is closed but A.B. Tech is open, they are expected to report to A.B. Tech classes if they can do so safely. If students do not feel they can safely report to class, they are expected to contact the instructor.
