We do not believe the student was at school during the time of sickness, however we have taken precautionary measures to disinfect the classrooms. If we feel your child was in close contact with the student at any time we will notify you.

Picture Day at Reagan County Middle School is Wednesday, October 21st. Picture packets will go home on Monday. Have a great weekend!

There will be no pre-sale tickets or vouchers needed for Roosevelt Football game this Friday. Fans will be able to purchase tickets at the gate Friday evening.

Reagan County ISD will continue to require students, staff, and community members to wear face coverings while attending school activities. Wearing a face covering protects students and staff from being in close contact if an individual were to test positive for COVID-19. This will limit exposure and allow us to continue normal operations without having to quarantine. We will be required to continue to follow UIL guidelines for all sport activities, which includes wearing a face covering. We appreciate your support!

We were notified from the Odessa Compass Volleyball team that a parent that attended the volleyball game on October 3, 2020 at Reagan County ISD tested positive for COVID-19. We would like for anyone that attended the volleyball game to monitor themselves for symptoms. If you did not wear a mask and were within six feet of anyone from Compass please notify the school for more questions. We believe the 14-day incubation period for symptoms would be from 10/3/20 to 10/17/20. We also want to remind everyone the importance of wearing a face covering and social distancing when attending school activities.

Attention parents of students who had free or reduced lunches at the end of school last year and have not filled out an application yet for this school year, as of tomorrow 10-9-2020 your child will no longer qualify for free/reduced lunch and will be pay full price as the 30 day carryover has ended.
