In order to reduce the amount of visitors and exchanging of items at school, RHS will no longer allow deliveries of outside food during the school day. This includes fast food brought by parents/guardians and deliveries from restaurants. Thank you for helping us honor this policy to ensure the health of our students and staff.

RHS will provide tutoring in the core subject areas of English, math, science, and social studies in the RHS library. The days and times for tutoring are:
Tuesday: 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm
Wednesday: 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm
Thursday: 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm
ACT Prep is available every Tuesday and Thursday in the RHS library. This is a GREAT way to get some practice, tips, and support to help you increase your ACT score.
To ride the tutoring bus after tutoring or ACT Prep, students need to sign up for the bus BEFORE 1:00 pm each day using the following link: Bus Sign-Up Form
You may also sign up and ride the bus if you attend a club meeting. If you are not on the bus list by 1:00 pm each day that you need it, you will not be able to ride. Bus passes will be available in the library at 3:45 for those on the list. You MUST have a pass to get on the bus. The bus will take you home, but the time will vary depending on the route each day.
Tiger Grounds, our RHS student-managed coffee shop, accepts e-gift cards, debit, & credit cards (no cash). Give a treat, purchase your student a gift card online so they can get a refresher, coffee, or snack at school. #tigergrounds.shopsettings.com

There will be no school for students on Monday, January 18th, as a holiday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Families needing childcare can sign up by Wednesday, January 13th at 4:30 p.m. for Cub Care by clicking HERE. Cub Care is available for kindergarten-8th grade students.
The Springfield-Greene County Health Department has released information in regards to schools implementing modified quarantines. This allows students to continue attending school after a properly masked, low-risk exposure to COVID19. In response, the Republic School District now requires all students in kindergarten and older in addition to all adults to wear masks while on campus or on our buses.
CLICK HERE for details on how this will impact Republic students.
Take note, if your child is exposed and qualifies for a modified quarantine you will receive an email notification, not a phone call. However, if your child needs to traditionally quarantine due to a high-risk, unmasked exposure you will receive an individual phone call.
In compliance with RSMo 115.127.5, notice is hereby given to the qualified voters of the Republic R-III School District of Greene and Christian Counties of Missouri, that the Annual Election of said District will be held on Tuesday, the sixth day of April, 2021, beginning at six o’clock a.m., and closing at seven o’clock p.m., of said day, to vote upon school board members. Candidates for school board may file at the central office located at 518 North Hampton, Republic, Missouri. Filing will begin on December 15, 2020, at 8:00 a.m. and will continue during the district’s regular business hours, which are Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Except for the first and last day of filing, filing will not occur on days that the school district’s central office is closed due to inclement weather or on the following holidays and breaks when the school district’s central office is closed: December 23, 2020 through January 1, 2021. Filing will end on January 19, 2021 at 5:00 p.m. There are 2 positions available with three-year terms.
Ballot placement for candidates filing on the first day shall be determined by random drawing; candidates filing on subsequent days shall be placed on the ballot in order of filing.
For those who have recently been placed on quarantine or who will possibly be in the future, we wanted to share some important information. As you are probably aware, those who are directly exposed at school to a positive COVID19 case are contacted by an individual phone call. Due to the increased number of positive cases and the number of administrators available across the district to make these individual phone calls, Springfield-Greene County Health Department has begun stepping in to assist the district with these calls. The Health Department utilizes a third party company called Maximus to complete these quarantine calls. Therefore, should your student need to quarantine you will be contacted by either a school administrator or a Maximus employee on behalf of Springfield-Greene County Health Department. The call from Maximus will be from a 314 area code phone number.
Winter weather season is quickly approaching! The Republic School District will continue with the "snow day policy" we have utilized for the last few years. Should winter weather and/or poor road conditions impact our ability to have school in person, we will implement a snow day like we have done in the past.
We are in need of substitute teachers and bus drivers. Please share the below information with anyone you feel would be a good fit! Please share!

Each day we are asking families to do a wellness check of all students before they come to school. Employees will be doing this as well. Following these guidelines will help everyone stay healthy!
Below are the signs you will see on the entrances of our facilities. Keep in mind, only essential visitors will be allowed and must follow these protocols.
