Creek County is at 17.2 cases per 100,000 people, according to the state’s COVID-19 alert system. The decline from 22.0 on the week of October 22nd is a welcome change from a gradual increase that had affected Creek County since late September.

Sapulpa Public Schools says it will remain in Orange 1 through at least Nov. 6th. They ask that families  continue to do their part to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19; wear a mask when around others, watch your distance, and wash your hands frequently.

As of Oct. 30, there are currently 13 positive cases (9 students, 3 teachers, 1 support employee) of COVID-19 at Sapulpa Public Schools. Each of those individuals has been instructed to isolate themselves from others. The individuals who have been identified as close contacts have been instructed to quarantine at home.
