The Gilmer County Board of Education voted to approve the revised districts as presented above for the 2019-2020 school year in preparation for a new elementary school to be built in the Clear Creek area and the current Gilmer Middle School facility to be converted to a College and Career Academy as part of Gilmer High School. Each of the three elementary schools will serve students in pre-K through 5th Grade. Administration for each of the schools will remain stable. This plan will allow students to experience less transitions during critical early learning years and will improve efficiency of bus routes for community schools.
The map above clearly outlines school zones using Highway 515 and Highway 282 as zone boundaries. Letters will be sent to parents based on registered primary address confirming assigned school zone by April 12.
