Good afternoon. This is Hollie Lyons, Chief Communications Officer for Surry County Schools, with an important message.

This morning on Highway 89 near Hardy’s Custom Golf, deputies were involved in a brief incident on the roadway. The situation was quickly contained, and law enforcement has secured the area.

This situation unfolded very quickly and did not involve our schools or our students. All students are safe. Families may notice an increased law enforcement presence in the area as this remains a law enforcement matter.

Highway 89 is currently closed from Toast Road to Sparger Road. We do not know how long the road will remain closed. This closure will impact afternoon dismissal and will cause delays. Bus riders for Meadowview Magnet Middle School and Gentry Middle School will be dismissed at 2:30 p.m. in order to reach North Surry High School by 3:00 p.m. School will be dismissed at regular time. Again, please plan for delays during dismissal this afternoon.

We appreciate our partnership with local law enforcement and their quick response to ensure the safety of our community.

#SCSUpdates | ATTENTION: In an effort to ensure we have the most current contact information possible for our families and staff members, Surry County Schools will be conducting a test of our mass notification system on Friday, September 19, at 12:00 p.m. The test message is being sent via phone, text, email, push notification, and social media. This will be a test only, and no action is needed.

Most commonly, this system is used to announce school closures due to weather, but we also use it to contact families in the event of a school-hours emergency. Please check with your child's school to confirm the correct contact information is on file for your student(s).

Haven't downloaded the app yet? Download the Surry County Schools, NC app from the App Store and Google Play today and make sure to select "Allow Notifications" for the district and your child's school! ⬇️
