New North Fulton STEM High School Project Construction will begin this month on the 2020 opening of the new north Fulton STEM high school. The yet-to-be-named school will be located on the former Milton High School campus near downtown Alpharetta. Hallmarks of the school include an integrated curriculum, a focus on technology and health science, and an emphasis on design thinking. Design thinking is a problem-solving process that combines creative and analytical approaches that require the integration of knowledge and skills across multiple disciplines. Partnerships with STEM-focused corporations also will contribute significantly through their impact with students, teachers, and the facility. The school will open with an incoming class of 400 freshmen and will grow to a total capacity of 1,500 students as new grade levels are added. More details, including the application process, will be available this fall on the Fulton County Schools website.
