On Monday, March 18th, current 7th grade students will receive information about options for exploratory classes in 8th grade. During homeroom that morning, students will receive their red registration card. Students will need to select the exploratory classes they want, sign it, and get a parent/guardian's signature on the card. These registration cards are due back to the student's homeroom teacher by Friday, May 22nd.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Wilson, the 7th grade School Counselor.

I would like to extend a sincere thank you to all of the parents and guardians who served on the NBMS Parent Advisory Council this year. This has been an incredibly supportive group that has asked thoughtful questions, provided valuable feedback, and helped make North Buncombe Middle School an even better place for our students and staff.

We truly appreciate the time, support, and partnership each member has given throughout the school year.

If you will have a child attending NBMS next year and would like to continue serving or learn more about joining the Parent Advisory Council, please email Principal Honeycutt for additional information.

Please remember that students with overdue library books or unpaid book fees may not be allowed to participate in some end-of-year fun activities. To help maintain our school library collection for all students, we ask that all books be returned or payment be made for any lost or damaged books. Thank you for your support and attention to this matter.

From July 6–9, 2026, Buncombe County Schools will host an Agricultural Career Exploration Camp at the BCS Central Services building (175 Bingham Rd., Asheville). The camp runs daily from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM and is specifically designed for current BCS students rising 5th through rising 8th graders. This hands-on experience will provide students with a unique look at local industry and career pathways.
