APS Comprehensive Long-Range Facilities Plan-Fast track!

9/14/2025

 
Picture
After months of community consultation things seem to be moving extremely fast on this front.
Thank you to UHNA Leaders for providing timely information.
UHNA VP Beau Grant attended the BCN meeting last Thursday (UHNA is a member of BCN) and says even he found it difficult to follow the discussion. 
Beau has prepared a thorough analysis highlighting important concerns for those unfamiliar with the issue.
Link to online version  or pdf copy below.

​UHNA Membership Chair Natalia Hadad (who works for APS) reached out to Councilor Dustin Hillis. He's following the issue and invites concerned stakeholders to contact his office. Dustin Hillis Councilmember – District 9 P: (404) 330-6044 E: [email protected]
Feedback should also be delivered to APS Board as listed in their documents. Phone: 404-802-2255

or via their website survey (link below). 


Natalia provides this brief summary with useful links;
Atlanta Public Schools (APS) has launched a fast-tracked facilities
consolidation plan
that affects many schools across the city,
including those in our North Atlanta community.
You can review the official APS presentation here (pdf also available below):
​
What’s Happening?
APS is proposing to close and consolidate schools across Atlanta,
citing underutilization. They claim there are 70,000 available seats
but only 50,000 students currently enrolled — a gap they say must
be addressed immediately.

Among other things, what seems to be causing great worry among
some APS stakeholders (teachers, parents, community) is the
timeline being proposed by the District for a decision of this
magnitude. APS plans to finalize its recommendation by
November and adopt the final plan by December— a mere three-
month turnaround.
