Many students in Georgia’s Barrow County headed back to class six days after a school shooting killed two teachers and two students at Apalachee High School northeast of Atlanta. No return date is set for that high school. Parents say they fought back their own fears to encourage their children to return Tuesday and felt relieved when the school day was over. Superintendent Dallas LeDuff says district leaders are welcoming the district's 13,000 students back to a “safe space.” LeDuff says sheriff’s deputies and state troopers provided extra security when schools reopened, with counseling available at all campuses.
