Cleveland City Schools will open a new elementary school in August 2019. Candy's Creek Cherokee Elementary - Home of the Thunderbirds - will be our first elementary school west of I-75, off Georgetown Road, Hwy. 60. To that end, our team will develop a plan for transitioning students and staff to the new school and align the school attendance zones for all elementary schools. A committee process is now at work developing options for our Board of Education to consider. These committees include the following:

• Steering Committee chaired by Dr. Russell Dyer
• Educational Opportunity chaired by Dr. Jeff Elliott
• School Capacity chaired by Mr. Michael Kahrs
• Human Resources chaired by Mr. Kelly Kiser
• Attendance Zones and Transportation chaired by Mr. Doug Moore
• Communications chaired by Dr. Russell Dyer

The committees contain school board members, principals from our elementary schools, teachers, city officials, and parents.
