  • BCS Masking Update

    February 17, 2022   Today, the Indiana Department of Health announced that public schools are no longer required to contact trace or quarantine students. Covid-19 control measures, as per IC 16-41-2-1 and tied to the Governor's Executive Order, are being revised and all decisions regarding Covid-19 mitigation strategies are now local ones.  Brown County Schools will follow these guidelines and also move to make masks optional beginning tomorrow, February 18, 2022.  If your child needs a mask, please contact the front office of your child’s school. Due to federal requirements, masks will remain required for students and staff on school buses. Thank you for your continued support through such challenging times.  If you have questions, please contact your child’s building principal, our corporation nurse, or myself. The entire slide deck from the IDOH is attached. We will continue to monitor the data and our policies pertaining to Brown County Schools. Emily Tracy Superintendent, Brown County Schools

  • Changes to BCS Covid-19 Contact Tracing

    Good morning, After careful consideration of the updated guidance from the Indiana Department of Health, Brown County Schools will be making the following changes to our Covid-19 quarantine and contact tracing guidelines starting today, January 27, 2022. If a student has tested positive in a classroom -- prompt notification will be sent from the school to notify the students/parents in that classroom they may have been exposed and unless considered a close contact from lunch may choose to quarantine but are not required unless symptoms arise.   We will continue contact tracing during lunch because masks are not universal in the cafeteria and we cannot keep kids 6 feet a part. In Masked Schools •No close contact information required •Be sure to notify parents of impacted classroom(s) of the exposure and take appropriate mitigation measures. The Indiana Department of Health has provided the attached documents to review. In addition, we are now permitted to accept negative tests from home .  I f using an "at home" negative test and symptoms begin to develop, student will need to quarantine until symptoms subside or obtain a rapid test or PCR test. Please review the following documents and let us know if you have additional questions. Thank you, Emily Tracy Superintendent Elizabeth Hill BCS Corporation Nurse
