E-SPLOST Vote and New SEB High School Construction
The E-SPLOST vote serves as a referendum on the construction of a new Southeast Bulloch High School.
According to Superintendent of Schools Charles Wilson, the main reason for the "E-SPLOST 6" referendum is to ensure financing for the new school. If approved, the 1% tax will continue from October.
- The new SEB High School will have a capacity for 2,000 students.
- The current high school will become Southeast Bulloch Middle School.
- The current middle school will be converted into an "upper elementary" school for fourth and fifth grades.
The need for certainty in financing the added new school is the main reason the "E-SPLOST 6" referendum is on the ballot now.
