About Whitfield County
Description provided by the district or community 鈥� not part of the NCES dataset.
When the Whitfield County School System was established in 1872, its primary purpose was to educate children when they were not needed on the family farm. A lot has changed since then! We are now the 26th-largest of Georgia鈥檚 180 public school districts.
