The DeKalb County School District recently named a new superintendent to lead the school system.
Cheryl Watson-Harris was officially sworn in July 1 at the district’s Stone Mountain headquarters.
However, this wasn’t your typical swearing-in ceremony. This year’s event was livestreamed, and those who did attend wore masks.
