All remaining NSAA activity practices and competitions, including district and state competitions, have been cancelled for this school year. These cancelations are part of a new Directed Health Measure issued by Governor Ricketts.

The NSAA continues to encourage all member schools to follow CDC, local, state and federal health department recommendations.
The May 1st Transfer List deadline remains unchanged. Any further official updates will be posted on the NSAA website and the NSAA social media platforms: NSAA Facebook, NSAA Twitter (@nsaahome)

Beginning April 6, teachers will be providing new content instruction to students. The elementary teachers are working very hard to design activities and lessons that are meaningful and doable during this time of closure. Teachers will be flexible and understanding as parents and students adjust to this new learning model. Completed assignments will be submitted in a variety of ways, depending on what the assignment entails. Teachers will provide direction on how to submit completed assignments when the assignment is given. This could include the completion of online tasks or posting a picture to the class See Saw page, among other ways. Teachers will keep a record of all assignments completed. Assignments will need to be returned in order to document the advancement of education during the COVID-19 closure at Elkhorn Valley. As we work through this alternative learning environment, it is important to not get caught up in “grades”. Our main focus is continued learning for ALL students. To accomplish this, assignments will be corrected by the teachers and feedback will be given in an effort to ensure learning and growth.
Attention Parents: The Nebraska Department of Education Nutrition Services has opened up their Summer Lunch Program to all students free of charge. We would like to encourage more Elkhorn Valley students to take advantage of this program.
Beginning on Monday, March 30, Elkhorn Valley Schools will be adding a breakfast meal in addition to the noon sack lunch program. The breakfast meal will be ready for pickup or delivery by 8:30 am each morning and the noon meal will continue to be available from 12:00 to 12:30 pm at the east door of the Commons. Just to repeat, this means that all students can receive breakfast and noon lunch free of charge.
Meals will be delivered to our rural families. Students who have food allergies will need to make sure you inform the school of this. If you would like to begin receiving meals, please call the school at 402-368-5301 by noon on Thursday, March 26, or if you have any questions, please be sure to call.
Continuity of Learning
We understand that there are questions regarding the "Normal Operations of School" since school has been suspended. Please be aware that the school year has not ended. We are developing a plan for remote learning to take place for the rest of the year.
