100th ANNIVERSARY BLACK HISTORY MONTH FEATURE
In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled that schools segregated by race were unconstitutional. Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas forced school systems across the country to consider both the idea of integrating black and white schools and also the timeline for achieving it. But changes came about slowly at first - especially in the Deep South - where the tradition was the most institutionalized. Fulton County was no different. However, as the Board of Education finally began the process, the first schools in the district to integrate were those in the northern portion of the county in the towns of Alpharetta and Roswell. Milton High School was one of the first schools in Fulton County to integrate.To read more of this history, PLEASE CLICK HERE.

COVID REPORTING PORTAL
As students in Fulton County Schools (FCS) have begun returning to face-to-face instruction, a number of changes were implemented to ensure the health and safety of students, staff, and visitors. Among the most vital of these changes is the development and introduction of a new electronic FCS COVID-19 Reporting Portal for parents (and students). This electronic reporting process will allow for a more direct reaction from primarily the Fulton County Board of Health (FCBOH) with support from FCS to promptly respond and address student/family cases of COVID-19.
