Our role as a school district is to ensure that our students who are considered homeless are enrolled immediately, receive appropriate transportation, allowed to stay in their school of origin and referred to services as needed.
The Buncombe County Schools Homeless Education Program is Here For You!
If you or someone you know is experiencing a homeless crisis, please call or text 828-775-1898. In the event of an emergency, please call 911.
