Floyd County Technical High School has started the journey to becoming a world class technical center. The committee, made up of representatives from business, industry, education and parents of the community, officially began the task of turning the county's technical high facility into a charter school.  The transformation of the school will be a cooperative effort between Floyd County Schools, Coosa Valley Technical College and the Greater Rome Chamber of Commerce.

Mr. Kelly Henson, superintendent of Floyd County Schools, Dr. Craig McDaniel, president of Coosa Valley Technical College and Al Hodge, president and CEO of the Greater Rome Chamber of Commerce issued the challenge of reaching four goals to the committee:

• Design a school that will develop and sustain a highly skilled work-force for the community.
• Develop a program that will provide a seamless transition between high school and post secondary training
• Meet the needs of business and industry and improve the communities ability to attract new business and industry to the community and 
• Impact the system's high school completion rate.
