A photo of a Georgia school recently reopened shows kids packed in a hallway, many without masks.

Breaking News

The photo shows the first day back for kids in Paulding County, where -- with the support of the Georgia Department of Education in partnership with the Georgia Department of Public Health -- schools are opening up their doors with"guidelines, not mandates" on how to deal with the pandemic ... and judging from the pic it's an absolute failure.

Georgia's"Path to Recovery for K-12 Schools" lists"prioritizing safety" as its top concern for the reopenings ... but it sure doesn't look like that's being followed.

How about all the protestors packing streets without them. Pick on someone your own size

Nope

🤔 I see a crowd of white faces 🤔Should B Mass School shooting very soon🤔 europeans just cannot cope with there children being home All Day dealing with them 1 on 1🤔

How long before the lies begin about the virus

Why are the Bulldogs colors red and black? Same color as dey necks and fingernails

A little context for you, TMZ. Can we please stop with all the hysteria? Paulding County has only had 1,495 confirmed cases (population 172.5K) and only 19 deaths from COVID.

Georgia gone

Wait 🤨 that’s school? Are you sure it’s not a downtown street with “protesters “? Protesters don’t seem to spread or get it so dang all these kids will be fine. Just identify as a protester

Ih no it’s so terrible and dangerous poor people may get the corna

This is exactly why my kids are NOT going back to school and will be taking virtual classes

Kids don't get COVID which means that they cannot transmit it. Leave them alone. Education should be number one in this country.

Surprised?

Lmao I hate it here

Is anybody surprised!?!?! They kids/teens!!

let the games begin✨😌

All the student have to do is say there are protesting and everything will be fine😂

That is soo sad. I wonder what fair awaits us for the fall and winter 💔

When someone kids dies from the virus 🦠 and sue the school district . Then they will do something.

WTF

Crazy.. We are doom. These Kids will take the Virus home to love ones.

New COVID wave in about 2 weeks

Trump's plan executed to perfection 🤦🤷

How many posts have you done of people doing distancing properly? Didn’t think so.

Georgia is no pansy snowflake. MAGA, no fear. Kudos

I see several masks in this picture. Some are wearing masks, some are not.

Lol god help us

treating these kids like lab rats

AND?

Chibiusa_Mia

well based off of my experience from the past 2 days, school is very entertaining... watching kids who had the choice to stay home freak out about crowds and masks is pretty funny. thank you for for totally knowing exactly what the hell y’all are talking about.

And they’ll be just fine

Oh but when thousands of people gather together to protest & destroy civil war monuments, it’s fine! Right? The media is just mad because schools reopening doesn’t fit the leftist agenda. Stop living in fear & let us go back to normal.

they definitely need education about the reasons for wearing a mask

Georgia. One upping Florida since 2020

Let’s follow up in two weeks...hopefully ZERO new cases

Please pray for them and thier families 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Georgia doesn’t care for their peoples health or their kids health.... going back in person should be held off for a while.... just follow what realDonaldTrump wants not what we want for our kids and for our families health and this country’s health as well...

Ruh Roh...

What !

In Oprah’s voice: 👉🏼YOU get the ‘rona! 👆🏼YOU get the ‘rona! 👈🏼YOU get the ‘rona! 👇🏼YOU get the ‘rona!

Will be every HS in America

Are they prepared for the repercussions?

The amount of stupidity under this post is appalling

LMFAO ETOWAH IS SO EMBARRASSING 😀

Close the school too many

More like GuineaPigs even GuineaKids

As someone who is currently attending North Paulding Highschool, I’d like to say little to nothing is being done. Two boys on the football have already got corona, all while the head coach misses the 2nd day for, “percautionary measures”? ——

.... they're kids with masks in your picture! 🤔

Sick

I have a problem with this using children as lab rats 🐀 like a science experiment. Kids will die or infect their parents & they will, shame on you for allowing this to happen. Hope you all have your WILLS filed the kids might be needing them ready once you leave them orphans

Thats how the covid surge begins.

How is this allowed? Travelling will never happen if this keeps up?

Day two and one class is already quarantined.

soft as fuck. we'll be fine

This is not going to work folks

Good luck everyone! May the odds be ever in yawl favor.

Within a couple weeks we will finally have proof it’s a hoax.

We’re doomed.

Stupid is what stupid does!! 🙄

That picture could have been taken at my high school in Walton County GA. Less than 10% of our students wore masks and could not have cared less about social distancing.

yeah this school is shitty i go here and literally they’re not doing anything and no ones gives a singular shit about corona so

natural birth control. or also referred as 💀

🗣yo Wtf

😳😡

Couldn’t be happier to be back at school, we’ve had a great first 2 days! No one is forcing us to be here it was our choice ;)

What a shame!

I think it’s cute you guys believe these rags over our faces are stopping a virus lmao. These kids will be fine. If they do catch it they probably won’t even notice unless they take a test.

Schools should not be opening back up😫, this is not a joke, people are DYING😡, parents yes its frustrating but would rather be frustrated or your child in a hospital or casket😓😢, praying for all, God Bless🙏🏿 Up & mvh love❤, please be safe❤

Clearly TMZ doesn’t know exactly what paulding county’s all about

😳😤

Death house

Ironic that it's in the same state that had a covid-19 blow up at a sleepaway camp. Actually it's not ironic. It's exactly what I would expect from a state that's governed by a moron.

They had the option to do online school. Everyone there wants to be there. Stop being soft

Coronavirus

You should see the hallways before Covid — we will be fine

Trumper pushed for that,

don't believe it

Shocker!!

😱

I attend this school if anyone would like an interview i’d be happy to help

I live in Paulding county and you are missing some info. Please get all the info before passing out misinformation. The parents and students were given a choice as to which they wanted and only 9000 students out of 28,000 are doing virtual learning.

The students are picking on children that wear mask! The schools are also telling positive-tested students to come to school. It’s only a matter of time before these kids are infected.

Covid Central.🙄

OMG! Another COVID hot spot! This crap ain’t never going away! 🤬🤬

So there’s no one there enforcing masks

No one died

Great, natural selection will do it's work once again

Wow Jesus cover them

Do as I say ! ! ! Not what I do. 🤔

Death DeSantis, this is all you big guy. Clear your calendar, there is going to be funerals in your future. At least make masks mandatory.

You literally have to be the dumbest parent and dumbest kid to go back to school. I wouldn't care if my child got held back or if I got grounded for skipping school. I'm not gonna risk my health or kids health whatsoever.

My God, I pray for those babies immune systems

Ok so it's like this for me. The demand to open up schools after shutting them down in response to a VIRUS of unknown origin & not having a solid medical remedy 💯 as legal guardian of my grdsns, I wish ah MF would force me not to do VIRTUAL! 💋my ass!

I live in AZ. We lost a teacher due to Covid. 3 teachers got it, 1 died. Unfortunately there will be many more if this continues. I'm sorry for all the teachers, nurses, staff, all those kids parents, and grandchildren, siblings that have health issues. 🙏🏽

Coronavirus

Omfg.

Sending prayers to those students!

🤔 Did they not see the MC Hammer principal’s video?

Vote that governor out he is horrible

oh well thats America for you

I'm sorry but if there parents cant recognize there governor is a fuking moron these parents get what they ask 4 learn the hard way I see across the country dumb ass kids regret going to parties

Oh well. I'll be saving my thoughts and prayers for others. 🤷‍♀️

Dumb.... this virus will be with us for years to come cause people just won’t listen... maybe we will see a concert in 2028... or go to a movie in 2030

This is a disaster 🤦🏾‍♀️

Seems safe... 🙄🙄

Hey I’m in the picture 😂

some are sheeple and some are not. the line is clearly defined.

Good ole TMZ, drumming up fear

jkenney AlbertaEd We need to be smarter than this. When are you going to come up with a plan?

Smarten up ‘merica...

It’s NEVER GOING TO WORK !

Pictures like these will be looked upon years from now by future generations and they will wonder, what the heck were we thinking and why weren’t we taking this seriously?

Sad 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Paging Darwin

And?

I feel sorry for the kids who decided to wear a mask. Horrible parenting to the kids who chose to not wear one. Jesus be a filter!!!

Oh boy

Kids go back to school in the beginning of August? o_0

So? Yet there was massive protests over the world without and spikes. It’s a plandemic

IT's bullshit.....I love it....tell them to stick it....I want the schools closed for the cold and flu season too? It's killed more than the China Virus....let that sink in! such bullshit to ruin the economy!

That is not safe distancing at all and this makes no sense all these children may have been practicing safe distance at home ..and now it looks like they were thrown into the lions den as a grandmother this truly breaks my heart💔

Way to go Georgia

Never underestimate fools

awesome !!! that’s the way too do it!! this ain’t dam China !! we’re they are born with masks on!! boycott china!

ABCWorldNews today GMA RealRadio1041 DrewOnTheRadio thenewsjunkie rolandsmartin are y’all seeing this🤦🏾‍♀️

🤔 I believe I see 😷

i’m just happy to be back at school with in person learning. it is my senior year, would’ve been heartbroken if it was taken. Covid isn’t going away, we need to live our lives. The people scared of the virus have the option to stay home.

spikes from protestors crowding the streets, tmz is awfully quiet on

These teachers been coughing on us too I go to NPHS send us home maaaan

Omg

Why is it so hard to wear a face mask? SchoolReopening facemasks

Good, life goes on. Maintain your health and you’ll be just fine.

Stupid parents raise stupid children!

They have a greater chance of getting killed by lightning on the way to school than dying of the rona

OMG!!!?!!!!?!

And?

Opening without mask mandates is essentially manslaughter.

Come on tmz. Make it about race. Too many white kids. It’s what you do best.

This is how schools always been stop acting stupid

who cares what their outcome will be 🤣

First day back🤔🤔🤔 it’s literally August 4th

I hope all saying it ain’t that bad and herd immunity works like a cold or chicken pox use to. Hundreds of KIDS dead would be sad and ridiculous.

More masks are being worn now more than ever yet the numbers of infections still rise social distancing being practiced more now than ever before still the numbers of infections rise lockdowns across the nation but still the infections rise....... WAKE UP!!!! Scamdemic

Like lambs to the slaughter... Y’all tired of winning yet!!?

Yup! Not sending my teens to 'in person' school this year!

Since when does school start at the beginning of August

Imagine using your kid as a scapegoat

Sooner or later, kids and teachers will start spreading it like wildfire because of the very relaxed state guidelines. I will not be surprised if kids are sent to school knowing they are positive.

Etowah High School Prom 2021..........way to go Georgia

We don’t even know the side affects years later from having COVID-19, it could be slow death even if these kids survive it now

With all that is going on, this is not a good look.

I feel fine

I still don't understand why many Americans think that the virus is an hoax .. I mean look around you and look at what's happening around the world , thousands of people are dying due to the virus and you are still in the mentality that all this is an hoax . 🤦

In Canada just made it Nazi Germany mandatory

Buckle up Georgia, Rona is on the way

Trump told them not to wear a mask

I see two masks

Just stay your ass in Atlanta don't come to Illinois....

Good

Are u kidding

Thanos knows what he’s doing, just let humanity reset itself.

in 1 month the death toll is going to spike like trumps labido in a miss teen pagent changing room

This is just idiotic

That’s my son’s school...freshman. But he’s doing virtual learning. SMH

smh

Daredevils 😷

wow crazyy

Big mistake! The numbers of cases will now skyrocket and that school will be forced close again. I truly hope that I am wrong!

Guess what.... They’re gonna be totally fine😎

I’m sure there will be an update on the status of this in the upcoming weeks.

School usually started after Labor Day

And now 260 have COVID.

I live here. This is North Paulding HS and they sent us this letter less than 24 hours before the first day of school. Multiple football players confirmed infected/sick, they went full steam ahead anyway and allowed the hallways to look like this. It should be a crime.

They will all be remote learning in a week

I hope they get coronavirus

And so it begins.......

It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion...

So this is TMZ without Hollywood...

In live in Georgia, and I can tell you there are a bunch of people who think the virus is a hoax and won’t wear a mask. Re-opening in-person schools is a little science experiment for state officials. They’re going to have to find out the hard way. Idiots!

Same state had to close summer camp. When will they learn?

Kids waking up for their 3rd day at school

WhichWichKing ragamuffinssol

Mask are the precautions. Smh.

So y’all just let them send your kids back to school with not one vaccine available? I see two masks in this photo. SMH. Not my kids

They’ve been hanging out together all summer anyway.

It is what IT is !!! 🍿🍿🍿 AMEN

Wtf

😬

Good. I'm happy that they are back in school in person learning. All schools should open this year with the proper precautions.

Mannnn someone is gonna get mono and Covid-19

Here we go!

This is what needs to happen. It's called herd immunity and it should have been done from the beginning

Sad

3 people left of center have masks on. Attention getters

🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🦠

I pray for the lives of the kids and their families. It’s sad to see people’s lives will be lost because of politicians forcing an agenda

Of course it’s in the south. Covid High School.

Experiment 101! Sad reality! 😰

so y'all really think kids can be trusted to wear masks at school? i'm being forced to go i don't want to go

COVID19 va etre content

Let the kids live. If you are at risk stay home. Stopping all life will be detrimental in numerous and wide ranging ways.

Oh well they should be fine

Lmao good luck mask police

In other words be ready for another lock down.

Good for them

August 4th is ' first day back'? WOW. that sucks, growing up ours was Sept 9th.

❤️❤️❤️❤️

😏🤦🏽‍♂️🥴

georgia lifted their restrictions 3 months ago. they are thriving. only liberals are crying and holding our country back.

A este paso vamos a salir de todo este peo en 4 años

This will be a nice experiment

👀

whats the problem?

❤️❤️
