CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. -- Here we go again.
Cherokee County students waited Wednesday afternoon for word that they, like most school districts in the metro Atlanta area, wouldn't have school on Thursday after an inch of snow blanketed the metro Atlanta area.
Students took to Twitter to voice their opinion.
You should uhh.... Cancel school Friday ;)

Can you announce it before it gets dark so i can decide what to do or more importantly what not to do?

Cherokee County Schools, which is no stranger to the controversy, started to get a little "salty."
So we’re here again. You asking me the same questions with the same misspellings. You telling me Cobb’s closed, there’s ice, it’s cold. And me with the same answer: do your homework. If a decision is made, you’ll be the first 21K on Twitter to know. Scout’s honor. #SafeCherokee pic.twitter.com/7aMRrj0qOJ

They played dumb:
No... is something going on? Is that why everyone is tweeting at me?

They put on the charm.
But you cared enough to find a meme for me. Aww. 😘

If I was responsible for grades, too, this answer would get 💯.

Finally, right around 5 p.m., word came down:
Due to the NWS Special Weather Statement warning of extremely hazardous driving conditions and the extension of the wind chill advisory, the Cherokee County School District is closed on Thursday, January 18, 2018 for both students and staff. #SafeCherokee
