Parents struggle as schools reopen amid coronavirus surge

A man and his daughter stand in front of a school.
John Barrett and his daughter Autumn stand outside Bascomb Elementary School in Woodstock, Ga., July 23. Barrett says he will educate his daughter virtually and keep her out of in-person classes in Cherokee County schools, even though he's worried she will fall behind on her special education plans, because of concerns about COVID-19's spread.
