As Cobb County School District officials prepare to call for a referendum this fall that would extend the education sales tax known as Ed-SPLOST some members of the Sprayberry High School community are advocating for a new campus.
They’ve been meeting with community members in recent weeks to organize for a rebuild of the current campus at Sandy Plains Road and East Piedmont Road.
They want a complete overhaul to be included in the next SPLOST collection period which would start in 2024 more than 50 years after the school moved to its present location.
“They’ve done a good job in keeping it up,” community leader Shane Spink said, referring to the school district. “But it’s almost 50 years old.”
