GraceMed is a non-profit organization based in Wichita and has provided services in our district for several years. Their Extended Care Permit hygienists will be coming to provide dental screenings, cleanings, fluoride varnish and sealants. All children are eligible for these services. If you already have a dental home, please continue to see your dentist for regular cleanings and check-ups! If your child is seen for any services, you will receive a report stating what services were provided.
Dental Screening:
To comply with Kansas State Statute 72‐5201, school children should receive annual school‐based dental screenings. ALL SHES, NES, & RVMS students will be seen for a dental screening. If you don’t want your child to be seen an opt-out is required.
Dates for the services:
Monday, January 23rd at SHES (complete form by 1/16/23)
Tuesday, January 24th at NES (NHS students can be transported to NES if they would like to receive services) (complete form by 1/17/23)

New Student Lunch Information for the 2022-2023 School Year:
During the last two years, pandemic child nutrition waivers have been utilized to provide free meals to all students at school. On March 10, 2022, the U.S. Senate passed the Omnibus Appropriations bill, which did not extend these waivers that expired on June 30, 2022.
Therefore, the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs will be reinstated for School Year 2022-2023, offering school meals at the paid, reduced, and free rates. Families who believe they may qualify for free or reduced-price meals may complete an Application for Free or Reduced-
Price School Meals during the enrollment process for SY 2022-2023. Families who do not qualify for free meals will be responsible for paying for their child(ren's) meals at the reduced or paid rates.
The District will continue to provide any added information regarding student meals as it becomes available. Please contact our Food Service Department at 620-663-7141 if you have any additional questions.

Reno County is in the Yellow Zone for the week of 5/3/21, this is the second week in a row in the Yellow Zone.
Please note, the PTR and the cases have steadily increased, however, the testing rate is very low, so the New Case Count per 100,000 is what we are looking at for Gating Metrics. Recommendations from the RCHD and the Medical Collaborative regarding Covid-19 include the following mitigating measures, social distance by more than 6 ft., wash hands frequently, wear a mask, stay home when you are sick, and get vaccinated. If you are sick you may get tested through your provider or the Free Community Testing site. Log on to https://www.gogettested.com/ for more information and directions as to how to sign up.
This Week’s Data: Prior Data:
14 Day PTR – 4/26– 11.7% 14 Day PTR - 4/19– 17.3%
14 Day New Case - 4/19– 62 14 Day New Case-4/19- 63
We are encouraging students over 16 to be vaccinated, they would not be excluded from end of year activities if they were exposed to Covid-19, as we would consider them immune for 6 months after they are 2 weeks post fully vaccinated. We encourage parents and students to consider this option.
Kansas is now vaccinating individuals 16 – up, vaccines do need to be age appropriate for the individual (Pfizer 16 yrs. and up, Moderna is for 18 yrs. and up). You may go to https://vaccinefinder.org/ and find locations that have the brand you are looking for. Reno County Health Dept. is scheduling appointments and walk-ins or go online and visit the Hutchinson Clinic, Dillon’s pharmacies, Walmart or The Medicine Shoppe for availability.
