The Candler County Board of Education decided recently to put on hold plans for a new Kindergarten through 8th grade campus until voters get the chance to decide an ESPLOST referendum in November. The board approved a referendum to be placed on the Nov. 2 General Election ballot to continue the Educational Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (ESPLOST). If approved the monies from the penny tax would be used to combine three existing schools into one new K-8 campus.
