Cobb County Student-Teacher Protests: Round Two

((HT: WAGA-TV))

The HQ told you earlier in the week about how budget cuts are wiping one particular high school's coaching staff, seemingly, off the map.

Today, Round Two of the protests were taking place before school even started...

AS a part of wiping out a nine-figure budget shortfall, Cobb County ((GA)) Board of Education members decided to layoff almost 750 employees- 500 of them full-time.

One high school in particular, Allatoona High is a two-year-old school. Since those teachers have the least tenure, they're being booted first- including seven coaches, four of those head coaches...

Students protested the cuts once, and they're at it again...

Tacoma Perry was at Allatoona High School- the evolving epicenter of the crisis...
