West Broad School Complex Revitalization Project Recommended

Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Thursday, June 18th, 2026

The building committee tasked with leading the revitalization project for the historic West Broad School Complex has recommended a revitalization plan to the Clarke County Board of Education to include:

  • A renovated Minor Street building to house additional Athens Community Career Academy classrooms and office spaces and community meeting rooms.

  • A renovated Campbell Lane Building to house student gathering space and host events

  • Construction of a brand-new building to house the relocated Advanced Manufacturing and Welding pathway lab space and a lab for the new Construction pathway for CCSD students

  • A memory plaza/courtyard between the back sides of the Minor Street and Campbell Lane buildings with historical markers and plaques

  • A multipurpose recreational field

  • Additional parking and a loop for buses and fire trucks.

This revitalization concept emerged from a group of plans developed during the public design charrette in March 2026. CCSD is moving forward with obtaining pricing for the plan and is currently eyeing a start on construction in early 2027 with the intent to have the campus fully open and ready for use by the start of the 2028-29 school year.
