Parents and Guardians of USD 298. The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority during these uncertain times. I have consulted with our Lincoln County Health Department, Kansas Department of Education, Kansas Department of Health, our local school board, and the faculty and staff of USD 298. The combination of all of this input has made it clear that USD 298 needs to extend the mask mandate policy through the semester until the Christmas break. At that point, I will again gather data from multiple sources to determine the best course of action for the safety of our students and staff. To summarize, USD 298 will continue to require masks for all students and staff for the remainder of this semester. We would appreciate your support as we make these difficult decisions. Thank you.
USD 298 continues to greatly benefit from the benevolence of the Post Rock Community Foundation and the generous patrons who support their important work. This year two Post Rock Community Grants were granted to USD 298. The first at LES from the Kansas Health Foundation Fund will enable the purchase of new playground equipment that will combine outdoor learning and active play for children. The second grant from the Dane G. Hansen Community Fund will support the Rubber Floor Project at LJSHS for the safety of the weight equipment and students and community patrons. This project is beneficial for maintaining quality exercise equipment for longer use which benefits the health of all students and community patrons. Thank you again for your continued generosity and support of area schools.
