Everyone,
We are currently living in unprecedented times. With the outbreak of COVID-19, physical schooling in the Clarke County School District and many others nationwide has been postponed to try and slow the spread of this virus. Adjusting to this new normal is just as difficult for the ODYSSEY staff as it is for everyone else.
Ensuring that the spread of this virus is minimized presents many obstacles for almost every part of daily life, and severely hinders the ability of ODYSSEY Media Group reporters to interview, take pictures and conduct tasks essential in journalism.
Even with the inability to physically meet, the OMG staff has been hard at work delivering information and updates as quickly as possible. We do ask, however, for some patience during these difficult times.
Our website will likely not continue to be updated daily and issue four of the magazine, which was in the early stages of production when the outbreak hit, may be reduced, or released solely online. We understand this can be frustrating, and realize the importance of our work now more than ever.
Our website and social media pages will continue to be updated as much as possible during this difficult time, and we encourage everyone to look towards local media and official sources (CDC and CCSD) for additional information.
Please stay safe. We will share more information in the future, and continue to inform our community to the best of our ability.
