Mimosa families have until Nov. 15 to submit feedback

Roswell families have until Sunday, Nov. 15, to submit feedback on a Fulton County Schools proposal that could close Mimosa Elementary School.

The district’s redistricting page now includes an online survey following the Nov. 9 community forum at Roswell High School. No school closure or attendance-zone changes have been approved.

CBS News Atlanta reported that Mimosa students would move to Vickery Mill or Esther Jackson under the proposal, with implementation targeted for 2028-29.

Four elementary schools under review

Mimosa is part of a Region C elementary review that also includes Esther Jackson, Hembree Springs and Vickery Mill.

In its announcement of the community forums, the district said changing enrollment patterns and population shifts were driving the planning process.

The Board of Education authorized the review Sept. 17. That action allowed planning and public engagement to proceed; it did not approve a particular closure or consolidation.

Mimosa’s school profile describes a population of approximately 600 students representing more than 15 countries. The Warsaw Road school opened in 1968 and has undergone several additions, including an extensive renovation in 1990.

The current enrollment figure does not establish exactly how many students would be reassigned if a closure takes effect in a future school year.

Revised maps expected in December

The district plans to present revised elementary attendance-zone maps at the third community forum Monday, Dec. 14, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in Roswell High School’s gym.

The published elementary process timeline includes additional board presentations in January and February, with a final vote scheduled for Feb. 25, 2027.

Families can review draft maps and presentations through the district’s redistricting webpage before completing the survey.
