Because of increasing issues with COVID-19, Meade gyms and weight rooms at this time are not allowed to be used by the general public without district supervision. This includes those who have an approved Facility Use Application on file. Facilities can only be used when supervision or coaching is provided by a Meade USD 226 staff member. Rec. Practices for 3rd-6th teams may continue with supervision by Rec. coaches. Even during this time, proper safety protocols and sanitation requirements must be followed.

Meade Community - Meade Schools Need Your Help
With COVID cases on the rise and with the holidays coming, we need your help in reducing the spread of COVID-19 to keep our kids in school and in activities. We need you to follow similar safety protocols in the community as our students and staff do at school. That includes the following:
• Wearing masks in public
• Physically distancing
• Hand sanitation
• Avoiding large or small gatherings where physically distancing is not possible or at least being careful with distancing and wearing masks
• Stay home when you don’t feel well
• If you have COVID-19 symptoms, contact the Meade County Health Department or your medical provider
It is essential that we all band together as a community and are wise and methodical in our actions, so we can slow the spread. The Meade County Health Department and Meade Schools encourage you to join others in our community in this effort to help keep students in face to face instruction and in activities.

Meade USD 226 this week remains in YELLOW based on the District Gating Criteria. County cases have increased dramatically over the last 2 weeks. Students out of the building has more than doubled in the past 2 weeks and is expected to increase. Multiple schools in the area have gone to remote learning and the Task Force doesn't want Meade to get into that situation. Because of the rapid rise of COVID-19 cases, KSHSAA is considering delaying competition for winter sports until Jan. 15th. The governor has also issued an executive order to require face coverings in Kansas. Our local hospital is seeing many COVID-19 patients and finding a hospital in Kansas to take severe cases continues to be difficult because of the large increase in cases state wide.
