When the athletics teams of Fayette County Public Schools take the field at the start next school year, they will do so against a new batch of foes after the GHSA approved their 2026-2028 region alignments.
McIntosh will be alone in Region 3-AAAAAA with Creekside, Langston Hughes, Lovejoy, Morrow, Newnan, Northside (Columbus), Tri-Cities, and Woodward Academy.
Starr’s Mill and Whitewater will be together in Region 3-AAAAA with Central (Carroll), Griffin, Harris County, LaGrange, and Lithia Springs.
