History
In response to overcrowding at existing schools and growth and development in the rural southeastern area of Henry County, the Henry County Board of Education elected in 2005 to build a middle and a high school near the Ola unincorporated area, near the existing Ola Elementary School. Construction began the same year and was completed in May 2006, two months before the opening date of August 3, 2006. The total project cost for Ola Middle School and Ola High School was $43,585,000 and was completed by the Manhattan Construction Company. In the spring of 2023, a Georgia middle-school student stabbed another student 14 times in the school's gymnasium.
