Students will be walking into a completely different looking school when Fannin County High School opens its doors next month. Workers are trying hard to finish up some major projects before the opening day. The new CTAE Classroom Wing is nearly finished with most of the utilities being at 90% or more complete. The new wing is equipped with all new high speed data cabling and new computer stations.
The Media Center is under an expansion as well. State law provides that the Media Center size be based on a percentage of the total school square footage. Fannin County School Superintendent, Mark Henson, let FYN know that the past few times that the school has expanded it received a waiver from the state allowing for the holding off of the expansion.
This was not the case this time. The center will now offer more space and even give the teachers a new conference room. A convenience that had not been available to them until now.
At the July School Board Meeting Workshop, Henson reminded all in attendance that these improvements were a long time coming.
The series of projects started with a new field house. The old field house was converted to class rooms, allowing the school to extricate the mobiles. The moving of the mobiles, allowed the new CTAE wing an area to be built in. The old CTAE classrooms will now be remodeled to be a top of the line Guidance Council Center.
Clearing up the old council office will allow for a proper size clinic to be put in its place.
Below are some pictures of the recent updates.

“We are grateful for the SPLOST allowing us to make these necessary changes. The High School was an old tired building, but we are now getting it to the place it needs to be.”said Henson.
