Chattooga County schools return to class today
SUMMERVILLE, Georgia (WDEF) – Chattooga County Schools in northwest Georgia return to class on Thursday.
They are the first in our region to do it.
While neighboring systems were pushing back openings or switching to online learning, the Chattooga system pushed forward with their regular startup plans.
The schools will be offering (but not requiring) masks to teachers and providing them with hand sanitizer and cleaning solution.
