(KLZA)-- The Falls City Board of Education heard an update from Superintendent Tim Heckelively Monday night on the Pandemic Planning for COVID-19.
There have been six staff members and three students in District 56 with positive tests for COVID-19 since August 10.
The Parent/Teacher Conferences for the fall of 2020 will be in a virtual format utilizing Zoom conferencing, with information coming for parents to access the conference system.
It is expected that Nebraska School Activities Association protocols for indoor winter activities will be released in the coming weeks as further restrictions are being predicted for the indoor school activities. It was also noted that fall 2020 semester music and fine arts concerts will be modified or postponed in order to reduce the spread of the virus in large gatherings.
The Board accepted with gratitude the resignation / retirement notice of Chuck Smith, the Alternative School Teacher who has been with District 56 for 23 years.
A teaching employment contract for Hailey Ruiz as a Special Education Teacher was also approved.
