Updates on the Normal Park High School

School Board Representative Ben Connor of District 6 recently sat down with Hamilton County Schools Superintendent Justin Robertson to get some questions answered about the high school expansion.

View their conversation here. 

Ben will write a blog post to respond to any questions about the plans for the high school, so please email him here.

Key takeaways
- It is valuable for the community to talk to county commissioners, school board representatives and the county mayor about the high school expansion. 
- Money from the bond will likely be issued in 2028. Then the school board and county commission will vote on the proposal. 
- Normal Park will likely open ninth grade in August 2028 while the money is secured and the facilities are renovated. 
- Carlines and transportation issues are being looked at but will not be completely solved. The benefits of keeping the school in the neighborhood outweigh the troubles with the carlines, but they are attentive to the impact.
- Normal Park is a great school and will continue to support the vision of having a high school in the community.
