Eight Texas school systems Several East Texas Area School Districts Have Headed Back To will get rapid coronavirus School tests with new pilot program
(CANTON) Several school districts in Rains, Van Zandt and Woods counties have returned to on campus learning as opposed to virtual learning environments. On Rains ISD website there is a notice that reads as follows. “In the last four hours, Rains ISD has been notified of 2 positive student cases and 1 positive staff case of COVID-19. Due to close contact tracing, we have been directed by the State Health Department to close our Child Development Center for 14 days. Two hundred students must be quarantined as a result of contact tracing. Forty employees have been impacted by quarantine resulting in
the inability to maintain ongoing instruction. Rains ISD will suspend all instruction PK-12 through October 22, 2020. Students will return to school on Friday, October 23, 2020. We are able to do this due to days built into the current calendar. At this time, this action will not require the district to make up any of these lost days”. In Wood County, Mineola ISD made the following statement on their social media page. “In keeping with Mineola ISD’s practices to respond to COVID-19, we are notifying our school community that an employee at Mineola Elementary School has received a lab-con-
firmed positive test for COVID-19. Our employee is at home recovering and working remotely. Due to privacy requirements, we will not be releasing the name of our employee.” “We also wanted to provide notification that two (2) students at Mineola High school have received lab-confirmed positive tests for COVID-19 as well. Both students are at home and recovering. We were notified of one case late in the evening on Monday, October 12th, and the other case early this morning. Due to privacy requirements, we will not be releasing the names of these students.” “To this date, the case count involving Mineola ISD employees and students are as follows: 8 Positive Employee Cases- 7 Recovered, 1 Active7 Positive Student Cases- 5 Recovered, 2 Active.” According to the Canton ISD’s website, they had the following statement. “In keeping with Canton ISD’s practices to respond to Covid-19 we are notifying all student families at Canton High School that an eleventh grade student was lab confirmed to have Covid 19 was present on Canton High School campus on October 5, 2020.Due to privacy concerns we aren’t able to release the name of the student.” According to the letter,”The local health department has been called in on the matter.”

TRY TO HELP HIM, BUT MOVE SLOWLY
Dear Dave, My boyfriend lives in a different state, and I’m planning to move there when we get married. I know I love him, but sometimes he is not what I consider to be responsible with money. There have been times in the past when he has taken out small loans or paid bills late in order to buy something he wanted. How can I talk to him about this? Heather Dear Heather, If it were me, I think I’d make sure things move a little more slowly in the relationship until he gets his spending under control. Sometimes when things like this happen it’s just a situation where a person needs to learn the benefits of budgeting and handling money in a mature, responsible way. You can’t do something if you hav-
en’t been taught how to do it, and hopefully this is the case with your boyfriend. You mentioned marriage, so that tells me you’re both taking this relationship seriously—that you’re in the process of making sure you want to spend the rest of your lives with each other. Bring it up gently, and tell him why you’re concerned. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with him. You might even offer to help him make out a monthly budget. That way, once he understands the process and value of spending money on paper before the month begins, it will be easier for him to stick to it. Good luck, Heather! —Dave Idea behind the legacy drawer Dear Dave, A friend recently told me about you and your
teachings about money. While we were talking, she mentioned something called a “legacy drawer” for important papers. Can you explain more about this? Anna Dear Anna, Simply put, a legacy drawer is a collection of your essential documents in a safe place where your family and loved ones can find them when you die, or if you’re sick or disabled. It doesn’t have to be a drawer, specifically, just a safe, secure place where you keep all the pieces of your financial life—your will, living will, estate plan, investment statements, insurance policies, and property deeds. You should also include stuff like power of attorney documents, bank and lock box access information, and any other instructions for and information about your last wishes and what you leave behind. The stress and grief when someone becomes seriously ill or dies is bad enough. Don’t make it any harder than it has to be by leaving your finances and other essentials in a mess! —Dave Dave Ramsey is a seven-time #1 national best-selling author, personal finance expert, and host of The
Dave Ramsey Show, heard by more than 16 million listeners each week. He has appeared on Good Morning America, CBS This Morning, Today Show, Fox News, CNN, Fox Business, and many more. Since 1992, Dave has helped people regain control of their money, build wealth and enhance their lives. He also serves as CEO for Ramsey Solutions.

If this year has taught us anything, it’s how to be resourceful in both life and business. So many people have had to learn new skills and really dig in to how they can keep their businesses up and running (and the doors open). But what happens when you’re at the end of your creative rope, and you don’t know how to increase that bottom line? You’ve probably heard the old saying: You have to spend money to make money. Who hasn’t? But what I want you to know is that it’s not true. Friend, you don’t actually have to spend money to make money. All you need to do is maximize what you already have.
