Our first basketball game is quickly approaching as we take on Iberia this Friday, November 20. We want to make sure you are all aware of our guidelines for basketball season home games.
1. The entire side of the bleachers behind the scorers table and team benches will be reserved for Linn students and staff. This will allow us to spread kids out while still allowing them to attend. The students will either have to social distance or wear a mask.
2. Allow four tickets per player for opposing teams. No limit on Linn spectators at this time.
3. Within 10 minutes, all spectators need to have cleared the gym after the game.
4. Cheerleaders will only attend home games.
5. Masks are required for all spectators unless social distancing can occur. Failure to comply may result in removal from the gym.
Here is the link to the November School Board Meeting.

Congratulations to today's Way to go Wildcats!! We are proud of you!
Just a REMINDER! Fall picture retakes are tomorrow!
As many of you may already be aware, today, Governor Mike Parson, the Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS), and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) announced modifications to Missouri’s K-12 school reopening and operating guidance.
The large number of students and school staff members quarantined in recent weeks has presented a significant strain for educators, school leaders, and Missouri families alike.
Under the updated guidance, proper mask wearing may now prevent individuals from being identified as close contacts in K-12 schools that have implemented a mask mandate. This means that if both individuals at school – the person diagnosed with COVID-19 and the person exposed to the positive case – have masks on and are wearing them correctly, the individual exposed does not need to quarantine.
The Osage County R-II Administrative Team will meet tomorrow to discuss recommendations for new operating procedures specifically regarding the wearing of masks. These recommendations will then be presented to the Board of Education at the regular meeting on Tuesday, November 17. Following that meeting, we will put any new procedures out to the faculty, staff, students and public. I want all families to be prepared that new procedures are likely coming in the very near future. We will keep you updated as we know more.
Congratulations to these students for earning a Way to go Wildcat! Keep up the great work!

We regret to announce that parents and other visitors will not be allowed to enter the building tomorrow for the Halloween parties or parade. As disappointed as we are, we feel it is in the best interest of our students. We will do our best to post pictures during the day. Thank you for understanding
