James Brown class sent home

COVID-19 detection has resulted in a new Oconee school class sent home for health protection purposes.  A K-5 class at Walhalla’s James Brown Elementary was sent home effective yesterday and given a return date of January 4.  Student and employee COVID-19 numbers are occurring most days, but the latest view from the district is that it’s content with where things stand as there are only four days remaining before mid-year recess.
