Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department Area Risk Dial
Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department (SWNPHD) no longer uses a risk assessment dial. SWNPHD has decided to change and follow the Governor's risk assessment which is based on the number of individuals in the hospitals state wide. McCook Public Schools has decided that it is in the best interests of our students and staff to continue to use the standard risk dial, because it focuses on the conditions that exist within the District.

Please do not send sick students to school
No envíe estudiantes enfermos a la escuela
Due to a number of students coming to school with illnesses, we are reminding parents not send their sick children to school. Sending sick students to school spreads viruses and illnesses. If you want to keep schools open, please help us by keeping sick students at home. Thank you!
Debido al número de estudiantes que vienen a la escuela enfermos, les recordamos a los padres que no envíen a sus hijos enfermos a la escuela. Enviar a los estudiantes enfermos a la escuela predice virus y enfermedades. Si desea mantener las escuelas abiertas, ayúdenos manteniendo a los estudiantes enfermos en casa. ¡Gracias!
