The DeKalb County School District (DCSD) is holding five (5) public meetings to seek public input on proposed options to address the E-SPLOST budget. The proposed options were presented to the Board of Education on July 8, 2019.

A key part of the proposed options is a potential referendum to approve a general obligation (“GO”) bond issue to complete the current E-SPLOST program and to complete additional projects to address urgent facility needs. The size of the bond would be in the range of $222 Million to $265 Million.

The five meetings will be held at the following locations on the following dates:

• Clarkston High School, August 26, 2019, 7:00 pm
• Chamblee High School, August 27, 2019, 7:00 pm
• Miller Grove High School, August 28, 2019, 7:00 pm
• Columbia High School, September 4, 2019, 7:00 pm
• Lakeside High School, September 10, 2019, 7:00 pm

Additionally, to receive more public input, DCSD is conducting an online survey. Please visit www.dekalbschoolsga.org/e-splost to learn more about the proposed options and to complete the survey. The survey opened July 22, 2019 and will close September 15, 2019.
