Uwharrie Ridge Six-Twelve

Uwharrie Ridge 6-12 is looking for a high school math teacher. Come and join our family!

It’s time to PACK THE STANDS and cheer loud for our Uwharrie Ridge Timberwolf Cheerleaders!

This Saturday is the Randolph County Cheer Competition at Wheatmore High School.

Doors open at 9:00 AM and the competition kicks off at 10:00 AM.

Admission is $5, and Randolph County badge holders get in FREE!

Let’s fill the gym with Uwharrie pride and show our cheerleaders the unstoppable T-Wolf spirit they deserve!

Please make plants to attend our Holiday Hoopla Concert on Tuesday, Dec. 16th, and see the hard work the students from Chorus, Band and Art have been doing!

Our 9th graders took part in the Reality Store and a Banking Info Session today!
These hands-on activities gave students a real look at how far a paycheck truly goes—especially around the holidays.

A huge thank-you to Randolph County Communities in Schools for organizing both sessions. Fun and learning were definitely in the mix!

Congratulations to our Middle School Spelling Bee winner, Braxton Avelino! Braxton will represent Uwharrie Ridge at the district Spelling Bee. We are proud of all of our classroom winners, and our runner-up, Grace Farmer. Way to go T-wolves!

Next week is Holiday Spirit week! Join us as we count down the days until Winter Break!

The Randolph County School System was recognized last week at the CTE Directors’ Fall Conference for our students earning 9,443 credentials during the 2024–2025 school year, placing us 8th in North Carolina among 115 PSUs. It is worth noting that the seven school systems ahead of us each serve well over 20,000 students. This accomplishment also reflects an impressive increase of 2,074 credentials from the 2023–2024 school year.

Our school system also achieved a credential attainment rate of 72.45%, representing the percentage of credentials earned out of those offered. Both the total number of credentials earned and our attainment rate for 2024–2025 are the highest in our school system’s history.

A BIG THANK YOU to our students, CTE staff, counselors and administrators who play a vital role in CTE program development and in making credentialing a natural and expected part of their campus culture. While not every credential directly impacts future job placement, each one contributes to building student skills, knowledge, and résumé strength.

RCSS is on regular schedule today, 12/9/2025.

The Randolph County School System will be closing at 11:30.

So proud of our Uwharrie Ridge Special Olympics athletes today! 🏀 They played their hearts out, showed incredible teamwork, and brought home 3rd place! We wrapped up the day celebrating with lunch at Pizza Inn, and it was the perfect way to end such a great event.



Way to represent The Ridge so well! 🩵🤍🩶👏

We are so proud of their hard work and teamwork.
Wishing all of our Uwharrie Ridge family a very Happy Thanksgiving!
