Georgia's largest school district has confirmed that around 260 employees have either tested positive for Covid-19 or have been exposed.
The Gwinnett County School District employees won't be returning to school just yet as districts across the country continue to adjust their back-to-school plans to prevent the spread of the virus. The situation in Gwinnett is fluid, GCPS spokeswoman Sloan Roach told CNN in an email Sunday evening."As of last Thursday, we had approximately 260 employees who had been excluded from work due to a positive case or contact with a case," Roach said.
Jefferson City Schools reopening 'experiment' is underway GCSD already had pushed the start date back to August 12, but had given the option for in-person learning until late July when the decision to only provide virtual learning was"due to the current Covid-19 situation in our county and the rising numbers of cases in Gwinnett County," Roach explained.Roach did not say if the newly identified positive cases have changed the district's reopening plans.
