CALHOUN GILMER TECHNICAL CENTER GETS $256,000 SBA GRANT FOR CLASSROOMS

(06/30/2021)
The state School Building Authority took advantage of a new provision provided by the legislature and approved $3 million in projects Monday for six career technical centers that each serve more than one county.

The Calhoun-Gilmer Technical Center was issued a grant for $246,400 for improvements.

This project proposes to renovate the Science Annex building to house two new classrooms for the Computer Repair and Legal Education programs.

Renovations include the construction of a permanent divider wall, as well as new ceilings, lighting, flooring, and painting throughout the building.

The roof on this building was replaced in a 2019 SBA-funded Three-Percent Project. The facility is in good shape and has been well-maintained.

Site visited 6/10/21 by Tommy Young, SBA with Bryan Sterns, Director of CGTC.

Located at the Calhoun and Gilmer County line, CGTC serves students from Calhoun & Gilmer Counties.
