The Walton Ambassadors Program was created to help make students at East Cobb’s biggest high school feel more welcome on campus.
One of their main objectives is to help freshmen get used to being in high school.
But with the rest of the school year limited to online learning because of the Coronavirus, some current members of the Walton Ambassadors put together a video to salute those working on the frontlines of fighting the virus.
The video, which was posted on Monday, pays tribute to medical workers, first responders and those helping to stock stores with food and other essentials while Georgia is under a shelter-in-place order.
The video starts out with a Zoom message, then individual ambassadors record a personalized thank-you holding signs. The background music is from “Home,” a popular song written and performed Phillip Phillips, an American Idol winner.
The ambassadors also thanked Walton teachers for their efforts to teach classes online.
“For everyone else,” said one ambassador, “please stay at home!”
