New Schools in Columbus GA

We have 2 new schools opening this year joining Northside High School. Veterans Memorial Middle School is going to be open for business on time on Aug 13th. It is a 13 million dollar project paid for by the 2003 splost and will be a great addition to the already open Northside High School as we have had tremendous growth on the North side of Columbus.

Additionally Eagle Ridge Academy will open on Schomberg road a little late at the 1st of October. This is also a 13 million dollar project and will house approximately 750 students in 2008. For this year the school will only be at about 50% capacity.

Both schools are welcome additions and should help to alleviate some of the overcrowding in our current schools.
