New Hampstead High School was opened in 2012 by the Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools. It is located at 2451 Little Neck Road in Bloomingdale, Georgia.

History

In 2010 the Savannah-Chatham County School System decided that they needed a high school in the west Chatham County community. Construction for the new school started in early 2012 in hopes to be open by the start of the 2012- 2013 school year. On August 27, 2012 New Hampstead opened its doors for the first time to students.

Though the school was open it was still not finished. Throughout the school-year construction was progressing on the far part of the school, known as the gold wing, and as well on the athletic fields.
