RepMO Return to Learn Phase 1

As we begin the school year we would like to remind families that the district has implemented RepMO Return to Learn, a series of health related protocols involving 3 phases. We will start the school year in Phase 1. A summary of Phase 1 is included in the graphic below . CLICK HERE for the district's Return to Learn Handbook which provides more details.

Masking Information

Masks/face coverings are required for High School students and staff.
ALL students riding the bus must wear a mask/face covering.

PHASE 2 ALPHABET CUTS: Per the graphic below, alphabet cuts have been determined for phase 2, should it need to be implemented. This is for student last names, and siblings would be grouped together regardless of differing last names. More on phase 2 can be found in the RepMO Return to Learn Phases Handbook.

Daily Wellness Check

Each day we are asking families to do a wellness check of all students before they come to school. Employees will be doing this as well. Following these guidelines will help everyone stay healthy!

Communications
