Name This School

Austell Intermediate will be called something different next school year, and your suggestion could take the cake.

Can you think of a good name for an elementary school in Cobb?

Starting next school year, Austell Primary and will both become K-5 schools; they’re currently K-1 and 2-5, respectively. Since Austell Primary is on the site of the original Austell Elementary, it will revert back to the original name.

That leaves Austell Intermediate without a name—and that’s where you come in.
