(KMZA)--A Nemaha Central USD 115 staff member has tested positive for COVID-19.

Superintendent Darrel Kohlman said in a statement that the district was notified Friday by Nemaha County Community Health Services of the positive case.

Per the district’s established protocol, Kohlman said all areas of the building that the individual used in the past several days have been closed off so that custodial staff can thoroughly clean and disinfect the spaces.

The staff member will not be allowed to return to school for at least 14 days.

Kohlman said staff and students who were in direct contact with the individual will be contacted by Nemaha County Community Health Services with information about quarantining or other directions.
