The Tyrrell County Schools Board of Education has scheduled work session on Wednesday, June 18, 2025 at 5:30 PM. The work session will take place at the Tyrrell County Schools Central Office, located at 1107 Hwy 64 East, Columbia, NC 27925.

We start early. We offer free PreK classes to all families in Tyrrell County – making sure your child gets a strong start.
We personalize education. We have one of the lowest student to teacher ratios in the state. This means our teachers have more time to spend with each student, helping them learn and succeed.
Experts teach your kids. Most of our teachers have 3+ years of teaching experience!
