School board members debated more teacher furlough days or pay cuts, and ended up deciding to end the meeting and try again Thursday.
The DeKalb County school board met Wednesday to discuss an $85-million budget deficit and failed to adopt a budget for the upcoming school year. Superintendent Cheryl Atkinson recommended a mix of a 2-mill tax hike and an array of cuts. Board member Paul Womack, meanwhile, proposed no tax hikes and a shorter school year and 10 more teacher furlough days. The board took a break to gather information on Womack's proposal and then delayed the discussion until 6 p.m. Thursday. The school board planned to vote last week on a spending plan that would cover a $73 million deficit. The board delayed the vote after they learned from district financial officials that there was an additional $12 million in cuts the board would have to make because the…

School's parents and students seek DeKalb County board's permission to continue operations
Peachtree Hope Charter School will have to wait longer for a decision regarding its long-term future. That's because the Board of Education delayed a vote on a one-year waiver that would have given the Parkview neighborhood charter school a year to operate while it applies for a county charter. "Additional information has been received," announced schools interim Superintendent Ramona Tyson at the July 11 school board meeting. She said that information is now being checked for completeness and fulfilment of state education standards. The scheduled vote was pulled from the agenda and a new vote date has not yet been set. The school is trying for a DeKalb County charter after a Georgia Supreme Court June ruling that declared those charter …

DeKalb County considering plan that also includes renting out Sky Haven Elementary
DeKalb County is considering a brand new school to replace Gresham Park Elementary, and may rent out Sky Haven Elementary. Both schools in southeastern DeKalb County were one of eight institutions which closed at the end of this school year when the county board of education voted in March on a plan designed to save millions in annual costs. But the Gresham build, and many others, depend on DeKalb voters choosing to continue a school tax. Gresham Park scored 56 out of 100 on a rating of school facilities, condition and technology last year. So a consultant hired by the county to help them plan capital spending suggests a rebuild is a better value than a renovation. Sky Haven scored 48 on the same test. It will not open in the fall. It …
