Zion's COVID-19 risk has now moved to green level. Effective immediately Zion will begin protocols set for operation in the "green" risk level. In most respects, school operations will continue as normal. Mask usage is now optional. Temperature checks and handwashing procedures will remain in place.
These changes were based on new CDC guidance for schools which prompted the move to green by Kearney Public Schools last Friday. The Zion administration concurs with the risk dial move to green and will do the same.
