Chattahoochee Tech's Woodstock Campus Will Close For Renovations

The state's largest technical college's Woodstock campus will close next week for long awaited renovations.

Chattahoochee Technical College on Tuesday announced its Woodstock campus will close next week to undergo renovations. The campus will close on Aug. 8 and the renovations will take about 18 months to complete. The campus is slated to reopen sometime in 2015. 

Classes and instructors who currently are housed at the Woodstock campus will be relocated to the college's Canton campus and the North Metro campus in Acworth. 

The renovations include improvements to the roof HVAC system, windows and updating the campus's restroom and plumbing. The renovations will not include any improvements to the interior to the former gym and cafeteria. 

The institution will perform the renovations with $5.2 million in funding set aside by the Georgia General Assembly in 2011.  

Located in the old Woodstock Elementary School, the campus is one of eight for Chattahoochee Tech. The mail building was built in the early 20th century and still has much of its structure from that time period. 

The campus first opened in 2004 as the Woodstock campus under the former Appalachian Technical College. Appalachian Tech, along with the former North Metro Technical College, consolidated in 2009 with Chattahoochee Technical College. 

The Woodstock campus, made up of two buildings, has general education classes as well as courses from the college's Early Childhood Care and Education, Business Management and Criminal Justice Technology programs.
