This is the Knox County R-I School District with an important message. We know that the best education for our students occurs face to face, however due to the increasing number of staff impacted by this pandemic and the shortage of people to cover them, we will have to transition to Virtual learning for next week. Monday will be a no school day to allow everyone to prepare for the virtual setting. We will also need Monday to make preparations for meal delivery so we will not have meals on Monday. Meal delivery will start on Tuesday. More information will be sent out about meals shortly. We hope to get everyone back to face to face instruction as soon as possible. Please be cautious and follow CDC guidelines.

Tonight is our first home Junior High basketball games. Different from fall sports, there are a few more regulations we have to follow moving indoors. Masks are encouraged and social distancing is possible. Visiting team spectators will sit on the west side, home team on the east. Games will start at 5:30 with the doors opening at 5:00 for ticket holders. Each player/cheerleader was given their allotted tickets to hand out. You MUST have this ticket for entry. All adults and students 5 years of age and over need a ticket. Gate admission is $3 for adults and $2 for students. There will be no concession stand, but covered non-alcoholic drinks and snacks are allowed to be brought in the gym. We will make every attempt to livestream games, but sometimes technology defeats our attempts. Please check our YouTube channel for the livestreaming (Knox R1). As always, please call us with any concerns or questions you may have.
