Following an investigation by the Cherokee County Health Department, there are no USD 508 employees nor students who are deemed at risk of the COVID-19 virus at this time.
We are taking advantage of this time to deep clean our facilities, as a continued precautionary measure, and expect to resume class on Tuesday.
Providing a safe environment for students, staff, and community is our top priority. We will continue to provide information as it becomes available.
Earlier news release
As a precautionary measure, USD 508 will cancel school Friday, March 13, 2020.
We were notified this evening that we have a family member of employees that has been potentially exposed to someone in Springfield, Missouri that has been confirmed with the COVID-19 virus.
Again, this cancellation is for precautionary measures. Baxter Springs does not have confirmed cases of the COVID-19 virus.
Due to the fact that we had previously canceled school for Monday, March 16, 2020, this will provide the district four days to deep clean the buildings and allow us time to gather information regarding all of those involved.
