Vacation Ends as Cobb County Students Return to Class
School bells began ringing again Aug. 1 for more than 107,000 Cobb County students who said goodbye to the beach and hello to the books. While the thermometer clearly shows we’re still in the throes of summer, the first day of school signals the unofficial end of the season of freedom for the young folks (for those of us not in school, Labor Day is our unofficial end). Georgia’s second-largest school district, which has 112 schools and 19,000 staff members, got off to a great start as students were welcomed back on the first day of another year of learning.
