Raccoon Families and Staff:
A second positive case in one classroom has been confirmed. Since we have two confirmed cases in one classroom, the school has been directed by the Marion County Health Department that we will have to go remote, starting Monday October 5th. The students will be able to return to school on October 19th. Students should have taken everything home that they needed on Friday, in case this was to happen. Meals will be delivered to all homes on Monday by noon. If you would like to continue receiving meals during this remote learning time, please call the office on Monday at 532-7329 to be placed on the list.
Staff will be at school during this remote learning time and will be conducting classes remotely from their classrooms. We now have Wi-Fi access in our parking lot. QNS will be here Monday morning to make sure everything is working properly. Students will be able to access it using their student accounts.
We will continue to follow the advice of and cooperate with the Marion County Health Department as information comes to us. Please call the office if you have any additional questions.
Sincerely,
M. Johannes
Dear Parents & Guardians,
I wanted to let you know that at this time, we are continuing in-person learning. As you are aware, we only have to close school for two weeks if there are two positive cases in one classroom. At this time, we do not meet that criteria. We are waiting on test results from an individual and as a precaution, teachers sent home school items today. I will update you if there are any changes. Again, at this time, we will be in school on Monday.
Thank you!
Mrs. Johannes
Superintendent
With the weather getting colder, please send a jacket/hoodie with your child daily. Thanks, Nurse Inlow
So proud of all the RGS runners today at the New Horizon meet. Top 3 runners in each race received a medal! Way to go Raccoon Devils!
Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade midterms will be sent home today. Please sign and return to their teacher. Kindergarten does not need to return).
Tomorrow on 9/24 3rd-8th grade midterms will be posted online on Teacherease. Parents need to view their child's midterm and then respond to their teacher that you have seen it by way of email by Monday, September 28th. If you don't have email, please send a note to confirm that you saw the midterm. Thank You
Tomorrow (Wednesday 9/16 ) is picture day. Everyone will be photographed for the yearbook even if a student is not personally purchasing pictures. PLEASE SEND PICTURE ORDER FORMS TODAY!
All students that have already turned their order in or bring it today and give it to their teacher will receive a special treat. It is a very busy day & can be very hectic if students have to call their parents because they forgot their order form. Also you can order online as well. Have a great day! Checks are made to Inter-State Studio.
Thanks for helping us avoid the chaos tomorrow! Have a great day!
Good morning Raccoon parents/guardians. I wanted to let all of you know of a change in our guidelines regarding symptomatic students and their siblings. From here on out, if a student is sent home with COVID-19 symptoms, their siblings/household contacts will be sent home as well. All students from that household may return with one of the following: a Drs note (with an alternative diagnosis), a negative COVID test, or after 10 days from the date they are sent home. If you have any questions, please call the school and speak to me. Thanks - Nurse Kristin
Hi Raccoon families - I wanted to let you all know that we have 2 confirmed cases of strep throat. These students are being treated. Please talk to your students about the importance of hand washing. We will continue our efforts with extra cleaning and social distancing. As always we are doing our best to keep all of our Raccoon Families safe and healthy. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks - Nurse Inlow
Parents/guardians: Please have conversations with your students regarding symptoms and the importance of being honest. While we do not want to send students home, if they complain of symptoms, we must follow the guidelines. Please review the COVID guidelines attached. If you have any questions feel free to call me at school. Thanks - Nurse Inlow
