Has the definition of close contact changed? Are the staff vaccinated? What’s the vaccination rate amongst eligible students?
No change to definition of close contact other than vaccinated kids and adults don't have to quarantine. We will institute a mask mandate next week as our state health department has said you don't have to quarantine close contacts if everyone is wearing a mask.
Staff vaccination rate is ~77% for all staff, ~82% for certified staff and ~72% for classified staff.
As best as we can tell the student vaccination rate is ~38% in grades 9-12 and ~30% in grades 7 & 8.
