Face Covering Information:
With the goal of starting school August 13th and continuing the year uninterrupted with in person classes, our district will require face coverings for all staff and our students in grades 2nd-12th when social distancing cannot be achieved. Primarily, this will be in the hallways where social distancing cannot occur, times when students need to work closely in groups, and when social distancing cannot be achieved on the bus.
Our teachers are working to create space in their seating arrangements to provide enough room to prevent face coverings from being required for general classroom instruction. Coverings will not be required during PE classes, recess, or anytime students are outside. We will keep realistic expectations for all students regarding face coverings and only require them when all other options have been exhausted.
The district will provide one reusable face covering for students who do not have one. We understand this is a divisive topic, but our primary goals are to keep our students, staff, their families, and our community safe and to have in person classes all year. Thank you!

WARRIORS
History tells us that a warrior is one who is engaged aggressively or energetically in an activity, cause or conflict. Native American warriors were known for their aggression which was fueled by their honor, pride, and sense of self-preservation.
The Ripley Warriors are also energetically engaged in activities, causes, and conflicts on our ballfields and basketball courts as well as in our student organizations and classrooms. We aggressively engage our education and co-curricular activities with honor, integrity, and bravery like those proud Native American warriors from long ago. We embrace their spirit and honor their memory.
We are the Ripley Warriors.
