captured in viral images last week

that showed hallways packed with students will temporarily close after nine people at the school tested positive for COVID-19, the district's superintendent said in a letter Sunday. The letter, from Paulding County School Superintendent Brian Otott to parents of North Paulding High School students, was obtained by NBC News. The letter didn't provide additional details about who contracted the disease or what their conditions are.

Students will use a"digital learning" model Monday and Tuesday while the school undergoes deep cleaning, the letter says. Otott says the number of cases could increase if pending tests also return positive results.Let our news meet your inbox. The news and stories that matters, delivered weekday mornings.

O my Shut down the state......

Well gee there's a shock!!

When did school start back in GA, hard to believe that many students just start back and got the covid hmmm maybe they had it before school started back

Shocking

PerrinJohnson Hahahahaha Hahahahaha Hahahahaha

If I was the parent of the young girl who shot those photos of the crowded hallway in this school I would be so proud of her for starting “good trouble” and would demand the school apologize to her for suspending her.

Deep cleaning? The problem we have is called asymptomatic person to person transmission. If these so called educators are this stupid they have no business trying to teach children. Lets drop the pretending. It's just babysitting isn't it.

THE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS SHOULD THANK HER OR MORE CASES AND MORE PARENTS OFF WORK TOO !! 👏 👏 👏 👏

Stupidity will kill way more people than COVID-19...and there will NEVER be a cure for that.

No way. You have to be kidding me.

Only to open again and recluse due to recurrence of the virus.

Do POTUS PressSec kayleighmcenany realDonaldTrump BetsyDeVosED know about this? Shame!

How about some firings and prosecutions for administrators?

Figured it would take a couple dead kids before the white flag came out.

Shocked

Why are schools opening? This should be important they should just make everyone do a general curriculum on a pre loaded device with the schoolwork and only the school work on it like a Ereader with a answer key and connection to a call center filled with teachers&GiveSavings2Us

Nine “people”. Who? Students? Janitors? Pretty irresponsible reporting. 🇺🇸🦅⚓️

I mean, who could have seen this coming? COVIDIOTS

Once again...republicans...trumpers...and the GOP winning!!! Hats off to the student that called this school and the district out on their BS!!

Too bad.

And so it begins...

free speech! fire those bully adults.

If it weren't for those kids..these cases would be buried. Now, fatal or not..will the district/school pay for the medical bills, face any repercussions for putting their students/families in harms way?

As of 08-09-2020: • 5.01M confirmed infected & going ☝🏻! • 162K 💀👻⚱️⚰️🇺🇸 & still ☝🏻! + millions of 🇺🇸 unemployed! + Millions of 🇺🇸 about to be evicted! MAGA = Millions of Americans Gone Away! What’s 45pp✳️ done? A: 🤥💩 + 🏌️⛳️ & funnels txpyr’s 💵💰 into his pockets!

Deepest sympathy for all infected. Felt extremely sorry for the student who posted the picture and was kicked out of the school..

Why ?

FowlerSarah Guess what most of us will test positive for this virus that 99.987% will survive. The gig is up NBC and the silent majority ain't gonna be silent on Nov 3rd!

PennLive and schools open on 8/24 in Dauphin County, PA. One must ask why with so many examples of why this is a bad idea. This is the 15th story I've read this week like this. Indoor as a group is a bad idea right now! GovernorTomWolf SecretaryLevine COVID19 SenBobCasey

I’m an advocate for education but if our government can’t protect our teachers and children from mass school shootings, I doubt the schools are safe from Covid

FAKE NEWS!!!!!!!!!!

'We can't make people wear masks. They'll do what they want. And we can't make them wear shoes. Or cut their hair. Or not wear booty shorts, talk on their cell phones or go to class. Well, we can do all of that but the masks *because.' Congratulations, you played yourself.

Open the schools they said. It’ll be fine they said.

It’s a virus. It will continue to spread. The survival rate for Americans is over 99% (total population not positives) - we have to stop the madness. Shouldn’t close the school at all. Spare me the “you’re wishing death” rhetoric. - HCQW0RKS

Is this the same school where the woman official asked if having kids change chairs every 14 minutes, to limit the 15 min exposure would be a good idea? We're talking about in the same classroom here.

Will the Governor sue the district like he did Mayor Bottoms?

The school simply has no intelligent reason to have all 2k students on campus at once. Split them up, and make masks a requirement. Is it really that difficult?

It’s a 99.8 survival rate bug

Lol

😏🤦🏽‍♂️🥴

I mean, with packed hallways during passing period and no one wearing masks, who could have ever predicted that? 🙄

At what point does America just explode from embarrassment.

Closing for 2 days, how GOP of them. The kids have covid not the damn school.

If only there were some sort of events that could have warned of such an outcome....

Prevention is better than cure.

And they suspended the girl who took the pic and reported it. She probably literally saved lives

Trumpers are just plain dumb

Who seen this coming?. (Raises hand)
