For the last two weeks, COVID-19 numbers in Habersham’s schools have stayed about the same, but this week, the decrease in cases is noticeable. And, for the first time since school started, there are no staff cases in Habersham’s secondary schools.
This week, the amount of active student cases have dropped off from 36 confirmed cases of COVID-19 to 27 confirmed cases, and active school staff cases have dropped from 12 to 4.
While in-school cases may be dropping, it isn’t the same story for non-school staff. Those numbers have increased from 1 case to 4 COVID-19 cases.
