Controversies

In August 2019, a racist note was found in a student bathroom at the school. [3] The message in the note included references to the racial discrimination that existed in the United States, most notably in the South. Many students at the school reported to local media outlets that the note was "just a part of a larger problem at the Georgia school." [4] Administration officials later claimed after an investigation that the note was a result of a hoax aimed at shining a light on social issues within the school. [5]

School replacement

In February 2021, the school administration announced plans to remove many of the halls that have stood for roughly 70 years, and construct a new state-of-the-art facility. [6] The construction was completed in 2023. [7]
