CSRA school raises kids' morale through teacher parade

Wednesday, March 25, 2020

AUGUSTA, GA (WRDW/WAGT) -- Children -- and parents, too -- are getting used to the new normal of homeschooling.

But perhaps the toughest part of this change for children has been the lack of socialization with their much-beloved teachers.

However, one CSRA school found a way to get the teachers and the students some face time -- social distancing guidelines notwithstanding.

CSRA mom Melody Campbell recorded video of her 4th-grade son's school, South Columbia Elementary School in Evans, doing a teacher parade.

A teacher parade functions quite like a regular parade, with teachers driving through neighborhoods and waving at their students.

It's the latest trend to help students stay connected with their teachers outside the confines of their homes.
