Education

Almost all of Greasy is in the Dahlonega Public School school district. A piece is in the Cave Springs Public Schools school district.[6]

In 2020, the voters approved the Greasy school district consolidating into the Dahlonega district. At first, the Dahlonega School had grades K-4 and the Greasy school, now controlled by the Dahlonega district, had grades 5-8.[7] In winter 2021 the Dahlonega district was scheduled to close the Greasy School site.[8]

In November 2021, the Greasy School was sold to a Cherokee language immersion school with its first campus in Tahlequah, Oklahoma (Cherokee Immersion School).[9] With Greasy situated in the largest area of Cherokee speakers in the world, the opportunity for this second campus is for students to spend the day in an immersion school and then return to a Cherokee-speaking home.[9]
