New Elementary School in East Ridge?

It depends on whom you ask.

If you ask County Commissioner Curtis Adams, the answer is "yes": County Mayor Claude Ramsey presented a budget that included funds to replace the eighty year old school, and the County Commission approved that budget and raised property taxes $0.26 to cover it.

But if you ask School Board Member Debra Matthews, the answer is "maybe not": It's up to the school board to decide what schools are built where, and they have not made that decision yet.
