FULTONDALE, AL - The Jefferson County Board of Education is proposing a new $38.5 million high school for Fultondale. Although there had been talk recently of combining Fultondale and Gardendale high schools, that plan will not move forward, and a school housing grades 7-12 is now on the agenda.
According to a report by Alabama Media Group, new high school will be built in the city of Fultondale as a part of Jefferson County Board of Education's $200 million capital outlay plan. The site for the new school has not been chosen yet.
