From Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health: We will keep our Smart and Safe School Guidance in the Orange phase this week based on the positivity rate trending down to 11.5 % and recent stabilization of the 14-day moving average of new cases per day. Due to the holiday next week, we will release our color recommendation on Wednesday. “We have found that if all the adequate restrictions with masks, distancing and spacing are in place, schools can operate with reduced risk,” said Douglas County’s Local Health Officer Dr. Thomas Marcellino.
During this critical time, the CDC released updated guidance today regarding Thanksgiving travel: “The safest way to celebrate Thanksgiving is to celebrate at home with the people you live with.” Additional resources to share are available at LDCHealth.org/COVIDtravel
Lawrence Public Schools will continue offering hybrid instruction next week. Schools are closed November 25-27 for Fall Recess. District offices will close for the week beginning at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday.
