Creekview students who had previously enrolled in online learning will not be affected by the closure, Jacoby said.
Sunday’s announcement came about two weeks after Cherokee schools reopened classes for more than 31,000 students whose families opted for personal learning. It came on the heels of two other Cherokee County high schools, Woodstock and Etowah, announcing that they would move to online classes by the end of August after hundreds of students were quarantined.
Etowah made national headlines when a photo of dozens of maskless students scrambled viral.
The school district requires teachers to wear masks. Students can decide for themselves, but are “strongly recommended and encouraged” to do so, Jacoby told the AJC earlier.
“As we have said since we announced our reopening, we will not hesitate to quarantine students and students in an effort to serve as long as possible personal school,” she said Sunday.
