North Fulton High School
Attendance Boundary Redistricting

A new high school is planned in the Johns Creek area to relieve overcrowding at existing high schools. The school, currently under construction at the intersection of State Bridge Road and Medlock Bridge Road, is scheduled to open in August 2009. Existing attendance zones at other North county high schools will be modified to create the new school's attendance zone

About the redistricting process - staff seeks community input
Each time a redistricting effort is under way, the school system holds three rounds of meetings to gather information needed to draft a redistricting proposal that best meets the community's needs. Fulton uses a unique process that encourages public discussion before developing a proposal. This allows the community to have maximum input on how the proposed attendance lines are created.

Timeline for Redistricting Process
Three meetings will be held at Autrey Mill Middle School from 7-9 p.m. Although steps are being taken to ensure adequate parking, parents are encouraged to ride-share.

  • Round One - April 14th
    • School system staff outlined redistricting process and establish ground rules for facilitated small-group input sessions. .
    • Participants moved to small-group sessions and input was gathered related to the redistricting criteria.

  • Round Two - May 5th
    • Staff presented four alternative proposals for new attendance zones.
    • Community members commented on strengths and weaknesses of each plan in facilitated small-group discussions.
    • Prior to the next community forum, staff condense the number of attendance zone alternatives based on public input.
  • Round Three - May 20th
    • Community members review and provide input on revised attendance zone alternatives in facilitated small-group discussions.
