The Cobb Board of Education on Thursday will be asked to approve renovations projects at several schools in the East Cobb area.
They include construction contracts at Addison Elementary School and Keheley Elementary School.
The board will hold a work session Thursday at 2 p.m., followed by possible voting action Thursday at 7 p.m.
All meetings take place in the board room of the CCSD Central Office, at 514 Glover St. in Marietta. An executive session will follow the work session.
The projects are funded through the current Cobb Ed-SPLOST VI sales tax. The Addison renovations will cost $1.344 million and will include new flooring throughout most of the facility, painting, restroom upgrades, new classroom windows and a new security entry area.
The work is scheduled to be completed by July 2026.
Similar work is planned at Keheley, with a cost of $2.986 million. The school will be getting roof, window and door replacements, new painting, restroom upgrades and new bus canopy. The project also has an expected completion date of July 2026.
The school board also will be asked to approve demolition of existing buildings at Kincaid and Murdock elementary schools for future projects to be scheduled.
Annex buildings will be torn down at both schools to make way for new additions, but estimated costs and construction timetables were not included in the meeting agenda.
Construction contracts will be brought to the board when those projects are ready to proceed.
The school board also will be asked to approve a contract to spend 3o school buses at a cost of $4.965 billion.
At the work session, the Cobb County School District’s 2026 legislative priorities will be presented, as will a school safety item for potential action that was not specified.
