LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. (AP) Thousands of students in Georgia's largest school system could be changing schools under a plan to redraw school attendance areas. <br /> <br /> Four schools are scheduled to be open next fall in Gwinnett County Public Schools. WSB-TV reports that when school starts next fall, many students will likely be sent elsewhere. The station reports that the redistricting plan is likely to affect about 14,000 students. <br /> <br /> Officials say that students from Berkmar, Central Gwinnett and Meadow Creek high schools -- along with the middle and elementary school that feed them -- will be most affected. <br /> <br /> A final decision on the plan is not expected until December. <br /> <br /> Gwinnett County includes several of Atlanta's northeastern suburbs in areas which have seen high population growth in recent years. <br /> <br />
