Mountain Empire District

The Mountain Empire District is a high school conference of the Virginia High School League which draws its members from Southwest Virginia, west of the Roanoke metropolitan area.

Mount Rogers is one of the two remaining consolidated K-12 schools in Virginia, due to its position at the extreme western end of Grayson County making it inadvisable to consolidate it into Grayson County High School.

Its enrollment is typically around 25-30 students in grades 9-12, and so its participation in VHSL team activities will be sporadic.

Graham High School (Bluefield, Virginia), left the district after 6 years in 2017.

The MED re-formed this year to include Rural Retreat, George Wythe and Auburn which was a former member prior to joining the Three Rivers District.

Old Mount Rogers School in Whitetop, Virginia. The Old Building is attached to the new school that has now been closed.
