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).
As a reminder, exposure notifications will be distributed each evening (and at the completion of the weekend) that there is a positive case in our district. Based on survey results in November, daily notifications will continue as opposed to weekly.
