Roswell Middle School Shifts Entire Sixth Grade Class Online

ROSWELL, GA — A middle school in Roswell has moved its entire sixth grade class to digital learning.

Fulton Schools posted on its Facebook page on Tuesday night that, "based on a high volume of positive cases and direct contacts and having met the criteria of a Level 2 at Crabapple Middle School," the sixth grade will be doing remote learning starting Wednesday through Friday, Sept. 10, returning Monday, Sept. 13.

Anyone who will be required to quarantine for longer will be notified directly, the district said.

"If circumstances dictate additional steps, we will notify the school community immediately," the district said.

On Monday, the district said the first grade class at Ocee Elementary School would be going remote through Friday, Sept. 3, returning Tuesday, Sept. 7. Last week the district announced that Lake Windward Elementary School's fifth grade would be doing remote learning through Thursday, Sept. 2, returning Friday, Sept. 3.

On Aug. 11, the district updated its mask policy for students, staff and visitors.

All cities within the Fulton County Schools jurisdiction were above 100 per 100,000 positive COVID-19 cases. According to that data, all cities were identified as high community spread by public health officials. The requirement to wear a mask indoors was then extended to all schools, including the schools and facilities within Johns Creek, which had previously been exempt.
