Slight revisions have been made to ease the process for students returning to school after being quarantined for a school-based COVID exposure, according to Santa Rosa Superintendent of Schools Karen Barber.

She told the school board Thursday night that students can now return to school with a negative COVID PCR test at Day 8.

On March 9, parents will have a chance to tell the Santa Rosa County School Board what they think about the proposed changes to school zones in the south end of the county.

Assistant Superintendent for Administrative Services Joey Harrell can’t predict exactly what parents will say about the plan he and his staff have worked on for months.

Students at Holley-Navarre Intermediate School, under the direction of teachers Elizabeth Baer and Amanda Nelms, recently collected and donated 378 pounds of canned food to the Manna Food Pantry in Pensacola.

The food pantry has a great need right now due to the effects of COVID-19 and Hurricane Sally.

Sheriff’s Deputy Arthur Austin doesn’t expect recognition for his job as a school resource officer at Navarre High School.

Still, to be recognized by those he serves means something to him.
