Americus chosen for South Georgia Trade and Tech School
The State Board of Education selected Souther Field in Americus as the site for the North Georgia Trade and Technical School, narrowly beating Moultrie. Jed Yingling estimated $87,000 to start operations and about $187,000 to equip, potentially reduced with federal aid. Souther Field would host 400 to 500 boarding students as classroom space serves about 1,000 registrants. The board plans to seek $100,000 from the Budget Commission to launch the project.
