New Bethany Bend High School Location-Anxiety And Rumors Abound!
With less than 18 months before the new Bethany Bend High School opens in Milton Georgia, rumors and anxiety over the boundary and attendance lines have started. Fulton School officials are adamant that attendance and boundary lines have not been established and have created a process that will seek community input before coming up with a redistricting proposal.
The Fulton School System has set up and scheduled a series of three meetings where local residents can attend and voice their opinions.

The first meeting will provide the community with board approved criteria that shows how boundary lines are determined. Local Milton residents will take part in small group meetings to voice opinions and provide their input. This information will be used by the planners to develop draft maps which are then presented at the next meeting on March 16th at Alpharetta High School.
At the second meeting, local Milton residents will again be able to voice opinion and input on the maps, and based on input, will present this refined proposal at the third meeting on April 13th at Alpharetta High School.

After these meetings are finished, the Fulton School Board will likely receive the staff recommendation sometime in May with final approval around June or early July, giving parents and students of the Milton area over 1 year of advance notice of the new boundary and attendance lines.
A 2009 Post Written November 13th About Bethany Bend High School Plans and Location
Typically, the school system appoints a principal a year in advance of the opening of the new Milton High School in order to allow the new principal to become involved with the community and its residents to work with each other in creating the naming of the Milton High School, as well as selecting the school’s mascot and team colors, which are critical to the identity and uniqueness of every school.
One interesting policy that has just been updated regards how rising Sophomores, Junior’s and Senior’s can determine whether or not they wish to change Milton, Ga. schools based on the new boundary and attendance line. These students have the option to remain at their current school if they feel moving to the new school will create too much of an emotional burden because of friendships that may not transfer with them based on the new lines.
