Dear CUSD 305 Parents, Students and Staff:
Hello everyone and welcome to the end of the week. I wanted to take a moment and share some good news with you regarding the school year and our most updated COVID numbers.
Total number of students in the district: 1073
Number of in-person learners: 991
Number of full-time remote learners: 82
Total number of staff: 151
Number of students currently quarantined: 16
Number of students in quarantine due to positive test: 0
Number of staff in quarantine due to positive test: 0
Number of staff in quarantine due to close contact: 1
Number of positive in-person student cases (since the start of school): 70
Number of known positive staff cases (since the start of school): 21
As you can see from the information above our numbers have drastically improved as they relate to positive cases as well as staff and students that are quarantined due to close contact. The journey has been a rocky one for sure but it’s so nice to finally be able to deliver you all some good news.
Another huge bit of positive news is that we are able to allow our students and athletes to compete in the activities they love. Although things still look different for many of those activities, I am so grateful to be able to watch those activities, listen to the students talk about their participation in those activities and witness the positive energy throughout the schools as a result of the reinstatement of those activities. Grateful and appreciative are the two words that instantly come to mind.
It’s hard to believe that roughly one year ago this month our schools were shut down. We have adapted, changed, reinvented the school day, revamped schedules and have implemented countless changes since that time and I’m proud to say that we have not only endured, but actually have improved as a result. Many words come to mind as a reason why and some are listed: partnership, cooperation, together, leadership, collaboration, teamwork, dedication, etc. The list could go on and on but ultimately it’s because we have dedicated teachers, students, parents, communities and leaders that do what’s best for kids and I’m proud to be a part of that team. Thank you for everything and have a wonderful weekend. It’s a great day to be a Knight!
Sincerely,
Mr. Shannon Cheek
Superintendent
On Monday, the IDPH updated the sports safety guidance allowing gatherings of up to 20% capacity for outdoor events. Guidance for indoor events did not change and remains up to 50 spectators allowed.
