Election Day Calendar Change
State law requires schools to permit voting when requested by the Fulton County Department of Registrations and Elections. Therefore, Tuesday, May 21 is now set as a remote learning day to allow for district schools to be used as state election polling sites. The district administration is working with schools to create alternative plans for student activities already scheduled at schools that will serve as polling sites. View the Updated Calendar
