Coweta County Schools will begin the 2025-26 school year on Friday, August 1.

Teachers reported back to their schools for pre-planning on Monday, July 28.  And – in addition to other back-to school events across the county – parents and students will be able to visit schools and meet teachers on Thursday, July 31, before the start of the new school year:

• Middle Schools Orientation, July 31,  10 a.m. to Noon (all middle schools)

• Elementary School Orientation, July 31,  Noon to 2 p.m. (all elementary schools)

High Schools typically hold their orientations from 2-4 p.m. on that day, but have individual schedules that expand on those times  Many elementary and middle schools also go beyond those times to hold additional open houses or other special back-to-school events.  School websites, linked at www.cowetaschools.net, will include updated information for these and other school-specific activities in the new year.

Representatives from the school system’s transportation department will be available at all schools during the July 31 Orientation, and on the first day of school on August 1, to provide information about bus schedules.  School bus routes for the new school year will also be posted on the school system’s website before the start of school.

Parents who wish to enroll their elementary-age children in the school system’s tuition-based After School Program will also be able to do so on July 30 and 31 at their child’s school.  Representatives will be available between the hours of 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at each elementary school, and will also attend special back-to-school events for student sign-ups.

Parents who need to register their children for the first time can do so through the school system’s Central Registration Center.  Parents whose children are not yet registered are urged to do so as early as possible, by going to the online registration system, or by contacting the center at [email protected].  The office may also be called at 770-254-5551.
