Dear Staff, Students, Parents, and Community Members,
In response to the ever-changing dynamics regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19), I would like to update you regarding Park County School District No. 6’s current and proactive plans. Please be assured my office is in constant contact with the local and state health officials who are providing assistance and recommendations of actions to be taken as the status continues to rapidly evolve. This information and all updates will be posted on our district Facebook page and our district website at www.park6.org
The District is following the guidance of Governor Mark Gordon, the Wyoming Department of Education, and state and local health authorities. At this time, no districts in Wyoming have closed. We will continue to monitor this issue to ensure that we are taking the proper precautions for our staff, students, and families because their health and safety are our primary concerns. It is essential that parents keep students home from school when they are ill and follow the District’s Sick Day guidelines located on our website.
Beginning Monday, March 16, 2020, all nonessential student and staff travel will be postponed until further notice. Bus routes, food services, and inter-school travel will continue as normal.
Thank you to those of you who have reached out and expressed your thoughts, concerns, and inquiries regarding our district’s response to COVID-19. I share your concerns and recognize how much remains that is unknown, including the future impact upon the community. I share with you here the guidance our schools are currently following. While it may not provide you with every detail of our ongoing work and planning, it will give you a general understanding of the recommendations that are driving our efforts. Thank you for thoroughly reading and reviewing the contents of this communication.
The following summarizes current status and recent action items:
Current Status
● Schools will remain in normal operating procedures including transportation and food service.
● School extra-curricular activities will continue to be evaluated.
● Cleaning and disinfecting protocols meet current best practice recommendations.
● Regular communication with Public Health and State Health Departments regarding the COVID-19 impact in Park County.
● Preparing for potential off-site instruction.
Temporary Immediate Actions
● All travel for student groups and activities is suspended until further notice.
● Postpone indoor events that are open to the public.
● Access beyond the front office will be limited. All outside volunteer presence within the schools is suspended until further notice.
● All out of district travel for staff is suspended until further notice.
● Staff and student health and wellness trends will continue to be monitored district-wide.
Sincerely,
Peg Monteith
Peg Monteith, Interim Superintendent
WHSAA COVID-19 UPDATE
The WHSAA Board of Directors, representing the 72 members schools in Wyoming, is issuing the following guidance as we proceed with our school activities.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the WHSAA has suspended all extracurricular activities statewide, beginning Monday, March 16th through at least March 28, 2020, with schools having the option to extend the timeline should they choose.
The 3A/4A State Basketball Tournament will not take place this year. We understand the tremendous disappointment this decision is for our student athletes, especially our seniors, but please realize that we must be a responsible state organization and that our highest priority is ensuring the safety of our students, schools and communities.
Spring sport practices will be allowed at the discretion of each school district. The WHSAA staff will continue to work diligently with the state entities that are experts in this area and follow their guidance as we proceed in determining the best course of action with the remainder of the spring activities. We encourage all our schools to do the same with their local and county experts.
We appreciate your patience and support of our students as we work through this complex situation.
