Brevard High School


Brevard High School is a public high school in Brevard, North Carolina, one of three in the Transylvania County Schools district. In the 2022–2023 school year, it had an enrollment of 751. David "Mick" Galloway became the principal at the start of the 2023–2024 school year.
The school was located on South Broad Street from 1925 until the 1959–60 school year, when the campus on Country Club Road opened. Until court-ordered desegregation began in 1963, Brevard High was white, and black students attended a school in Hendersonville.

Athletics

Brevard High School competes on the NCHSAA 2A level. Its teams are the Blue Devils. Sports include basketball, cross-country, golf, football, soccer, track, volleyball, and wrestling. The football team has won the state championship twice. In 1963, a racially integrated team played Reidsville High School to a 0–0 draw in the state AAA championship; the teams were declared co-champions and after winning a coin toss, Brevard took the trophy. In 1982 Brevard won for the second time after going undefeated.
Brevard has had a longstanding athletic rivalry with the Hendersonville High School Bearcats; incidents with unruly spectators led to a 1963 ban on competitions between the two teams without special permission.
