International Travel Update from Richland Two's Coordinator of Health Services

Quarantine rules and expectations for international travelers are constantly changing. At this time, travelers returning to the United States from outside the country are still subject to a minimum 7-day to 10-day quarantine (with a negative COVID test 3-5 days after return). This quarantine period applies whether or not the traveler is vaccinated.

If you have planned international travel over Spring Break, please notify Round Top Elementary's school nurse of those plans at ksibande@richland2.org

Richland Two Schools Move to eLearning for March 18, 2021

In anticipation of severe weather and unsafe travel conditions, Richland School District Two will shift to eLearning for Thursday, March 18, 2021. This means all students will participate in eLearning following their school’s current bell schedule.

The forecast is predicting widespread severe weather with several tornadoes and/or numerous severe thunderstorms, some of which may produce large hail after 1 p.m. The decision to shift to eLearning ensures that learning continues while keeping Richland Two students, parents, and staff safely off the roadways during the time when severe weather is expected to impact our area.

Due to the potentially unsafe travel conditions, staff members will work remotely on Thursday.

In addition, all after-school activities, events, and programs in Richland Two for Thursday, March 18, have been canceled. This includes after-school child care, athletic/fine arts, and other extracurricular activities, events, and programs, adult education classes, etc.
