History
The high school is named after U.S. Congressman Bartlett Yancey, Jr. and was founded in 1923.[3][4] Grades 9–11 were held at the then Bartlett Yancey School. These grades were later moved to a newly constructed high school building in the mid-1930s. It is unknown when a 12th grade class was first added.[4]
Bartlett Yancey High School became the only public high school operating in the county when Caswell County High School closed in 1969 due to school integration and consolidation.[5][6] It is presently the only high school in the Caswell County school system.[7]

Students at Bartlett Yancey High School have the opportunity to take Advanced Placement coursework and exams. The school also offers an associate's pathway in which students can graduate with a high school diploma and an associate's degree from Piedmont Community College within four years.[8]

Facility improvement project
In June 2020, Bartlett Yancey High School began undergoing renovations as well as the demolition of segments of the existing school. A new two-story building was constructed, which included classrooms, science labs, a media center, a kitchen and dining area, a security station, and administrative and guidance offices. Infrastructure improvements were also made throughout the campus. The project's total cost was $35.1 million dollars and was completed in 2022.[12][13]
