Health and Safety: Weld Re-8 will continue to work closely with public health officials and our local healthcare partners. Masks will be optional for those who want to wear them in the schools or on school buses. Our expectation is that staff or students will be treated respectfully whether they choose to wear a mask or not. While we will provide information to staff and students about opportunities to be vaccinated, the district will not request, collect, or store staff member or student’s personal COVID-19 vaccination records.
- For COVID Exposure or Positive Results, please contact District Nurse Paula Samide at 303-857-7100 or Heather Gibbs at 303-857-7300.
