(KLZA)--Current public health guidelines and the most recent DHM for schools in Nebraska remain mostly unchanged. 

Falls City Public Schools will continue to follow the health recommenations of the Southeast District Health Department’s public health guidelienes for masking, social distancing and hand hygiene. 

 It is noted this is particularly imporatnt with students attending school.  It is felt these measures are the best way to prevent outbreaks in the schol setting and reduce virus transmission.

The mask requirement will stay in place as long as possible to keep the Falls City Public Schools open, reduce transmission and protect the staff and students district wide.

The Falls City School District principals reported there are currently two COVID-19 positive cases and five individuals under a directed quarantine due to close contact exposure.
