ESPLOST leads to better schools – and it’s a proven fact that better schools help protect and increase property values in a community.
Across Georgia, 158 out of 159 counties actively use ESPLOST programs to invest in school infrastructure and teaching tools.
A renewal of ESPLOST will not increase our current sales tax; it will remain the same.
Previous ESPLOST funds helped support land acquisition and construction of multiple schools and buildings in the Hall County and Gainesville City districts. ESPLOST also helped to install new HVAC systems, ensure state-of-the-art turf football fields at all High Schools, installed new learning commons (media centers), and purchased new school buses.
In May, you can help make a difference for our community by voting yes to renew ESPLOST. Funds from ESPLOST VII will help Hall County and Gainesville City school systems continue to address the rapid growth in our community. Funds will also help pay debts from previous expansion projects approved by voters during the last ESPLOST period. Help ensure that our schools and community remain strong.
School safety is a top priority for parents, and families want to know their children are protected the moment they walk through the door. That is why recent ESPLOST funds have been specifically targeted to improve and enhance the safety of every student and faculty member within the Hall County and Gainesville City school districts.
Voting YES to renew ESPLOST will continue to improve the physical and data security of each one of our community schools. ESPLOST VII will continue to provide tools such as modern cameras and communication systems, as well as the latest in cybersecurity systems. Help ensure that our schools remain secure.
Technology is ever present in the modern learning environment to prepare students for the careers of tomorrow, and past ESPLOST funds have played a significant role in making sure that our classrooms keep up with the times by making items such as Chromebooks and PCs available to all students for classroom and home use.
A YES vote for ESPLOST VII means that students in Hall County and Gainesville City will continue to have access to the latest in technology – including replacing and refurbishing worn out computers and AV systems. Help keep our students learning at the fastest and highest levels possible.
