Riverbend Elementary is the oldest school in Hall County with sections of the building dating back 80 years. If the Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax VI and the bond referendum pass, Hall County Schools will replace seven outdated elementary schools with four. Riverbend Elementary will be combined with White Sulphur Elementary. - photo by Scott Rogers
