Republic School District Families and Employees,

The district has been made aware of the following COVID19 cases:

RHS: One student was not on campus when contagious. One student was last on campus when contagious 1/16, two students on 1/19, two students on 1/20 and three students on 1/21.
RMS: One student last on campus when contagious 1/21.
SCHOFIELD: One student was last on campus when contagious 1/20.

At the direction of the Springfield-Greene County Health Department all individuals considered low-risk exposures to the individuals who tested positive will be contacted by school via email as they are eligible for a modified quarantine (Can attend school, ride the bus and attend STRIPES, but must quarantine outside of school.). Any high-risk, unmasked exposures who were exposed that need to traditionally quarantine will be called individually by a district employee or by Maximus (3rd party on behalf of Greene-County Health Department).
Information in regards to the district's response to COVID19 (including a weekly case tracker) can be found at https://www.republicschools.org/healthupdates. Also, the graphic below outlines quarantine protocols. Thank you for your support and flexibility as we navigate this time.
