Marchers will no longer be seen in their uniforms when attending games; instead they wear khakis and a blue, dry fit t-shirt. “Just last year all of us were joking around and having fun, practicing for competitions and laughing in the stands at football games.

“When it comes to picking which county thought deeply about their resumption, I think Cobb County schools would be my choice,” junior at Woodstock High School J’kya Thomas said.

Local communities and businesses praise healthcare workers at hospitals in their area. Especially during the early months of quarantine, people showed their support by writing letters, posting on social media, and making signs showing their gratitude to hospitals and their workers.

“I don’t feel like it is a good idea to send students back to school. First, I don’t see the virus going away anytime soon, and once school starts, social distancing won’t be able to function in a school. Second, we have already started online so we should finish the semester because the classes have already been scheduled,” 9th Grade Magnet Student Morgan Zitsch said. Cobb County students and parents think that it would not be a good idea to send kids back. COVID- 19 still thrives in America, which means students should not go to school regardless of what the school district says. According to a poll of the nation’s parents, 36% agree that their students should remain quarantined until there are no longer health risks.

Located next to the children’s section of the library, books wait in this closed-off room for their hours of quarantine to end. The North Cobb Regional Library set up an organized system on how these returned books get processed. “All of the books go into quarantine for at least 72 hours. So we have some people who are more at risk than others, so then if they, you know, say that they aren't comfortable with it, they aren't touching any books at all. So we’ll just have staff that comes in after the 72 hours, and we process them like we used to...when people return it, we have them return it into the book drop so we don't actually have to touch it right away,” Kristen Gwin, head of teen services, said.
