All Cobb Co. Schools Closed.

Fulton announced the same shortly after Cobb. I have contacts in Paulding and Cherokee...they seem to be holding firm. Cobb County is far more left than people want to admit.

I would assume Cobb, like APS and Dekalb, being as big as they are will be exposed to more of the fear you mentioned causing all of this. Besides just being leftist **** holes.

What do you think private schools will do?

Clever, but I didn't miss the insinuation. Case numbers may be going up but the death rate is falling. Larger populations will obviously have larger exposure numbers. More and more cases are popping up as testing is increasing but it's simple math. The death rate was worse early on because the testing was so limited. Now that the pool of cases is rising, the morbidity rate is falling. That is, if you even believe the numbers. Which I don't. I know, first hand, of a person who scheduled a test, did not go and take it, and yet received a phone call indicating that they were positive for COVID 19. So either one of two things is happening: 1) The virus has some how become "less deadly" or 2) it was never as deadly as some where lead to believe. My money is on number two.

If social media is any indication, they intended to open on time with in person learning. Several Cobb private schools have already posted as much on their social media accounts. I have a contact at a local private school who informed me that just this afternoon they had several parents begin the enrollment process directly because her school was offering on campus learning and Cobb was not. Good for them. Someone has to stand up to this at some point and say "It's time to move forward."

Imagine a government that doesn't want to educate it's children.

I actually wasn't been clever, just brief. The fear I was referencing to the 3 items of fear you referenced in your first long post in this thread. Their liability and exposure to litigation is larger for example. They are bigger so they simpley are exposed to more negative backlash, not just dealths from the beer flu. I was just to lazy to go and quote you.

Re data. I hope you are not a STEM educator - using your one data point as evidence of the datasets overall margin of error and manipulation. That is not how data works, 100% fake or not or somewhere in between. I have a personal data point to contradict yours but you won't see me using it as evidence to disprove you.

Re Private School - that is what I'm hearing too. I'm fortunate we got her in right before all of this. The rest of my friends in public are immediately on the hunt for personal tutors and teachers willing to educate in some sort of neighborhood pod format. Others are looking to try their hand at homeschooling.

My kids are in private school in Bibb county and they are starting on time, with masks required. They created "levels" that they will go by and what is required for each if they up or lower the risk level.

With that said, private schools pretty much have to open (or at least appear they are) if not nobody was going to pay the tuition which keeps them in business. My guess is they will open, (have our money) then a week or 2 later fall back on the at home learning.
