The Cobb School District remains committed to providing our students with an internationally competitive education, ensuring a safe instructional environment, and prioritizing our community’s overwhelming preference for in-person learning. 

We ask our community to continue your support in doing our best to keep our schools safe. Please do not send a sick child to school and be aware of the following symptoms to keep your child(ren) home: a student has a fever (100.4 temperature without fever-reducing medications), or a student has a positive or pending test for COVID-19. If a student has a new cough, shortness of breath, or recent changes to taste/smell, we recommend you contact your health professional for guidance. 

With the new Omicron variant and winter season upon us, COVID-19 cases have increased throughout our community and across the state. Ensuring sick children are not sent to school helps to control virus spread and keep our schools open.

Please reference the District’s website for the latest CCSD protocols for COVID-19. We are thankful for your continued support during these challenging times as we work together in the best interest of our students, families, and staff.

Face Coverings: Strongly encouraged but optional for students and staff, unless following CCSD quarantine protocol.

Quarantine:

Students who are identified as a close contact, where the point of exposure occurred in the school setting, and are asymptomatic may immediately return to class if the parent chooses.

Asymptomatic students identified as a close contact, where the point of exposure occurred in the school setting, must remain asymptomatic and wear a mask while on school district property for an additional seven days after exposure.

Students who are identified as a close contact, where the point of exposure occurred in the school setting, and are symptomatic must follow the isolation guidance contained in the close contact letter.

Isolation: Any student or staff member who tests positive for COVID-19 will be required to isolate in accordance with GADPH guidelines.
