(KNZA)--Holton USD 336 is reporting a fourth confirmed case of COVID-19.

The district said in a statement on their Facebook page that the middle school was alerted Friday by a parent that their child had tested positive.

Two high school students and an elementary school staff member tested positive for COVID-19 last week, which forced some schedule changes.

The district said the middle school student rides a bus in the morning, is out for middle school football and was at Thursday night's middle school football game.

The district said if a student has been in “ close contact” (within 6 feet of contact for 10 minutes or more) with the student, the Jackson County Health Department will be contacting parents soon to let them know.

If your family attended Thursday night's middle school football game, the health department is asking that you monitor yourself and your family for COVID-19 symptoms. You are not quarantined unless contacted by the health department.

Parents of students or staff exhibiting flu-like symptoms are asked to contact their health care provider or the Jackson County Health Department.
