The neighboring communities of Sneads and Grand Ridge combined their high schools and middle schools beginning with the 2006-2007 school year. Grades 9-12 at Grand Ridge were added to the Sneads High School and the 6-8 grades at Sneads High are now at Grand Ridge.

Community members had been opposed to the merger of these local rivals, especially those whose children would have completed their educations at Grand Ridge High School, but the transition went smoothly, with the only real challenge being the school bus routes and schedules.
