Nebraska education officials Wednesday said they have no plans to change guidance for reopening schools after threats from President Donald Trump to withhold federal education funds to schools that don’t fully reopen in the fall.

“The Nebraska Department of Education has been working with local school districts for several months to safely provide continuity of learning for all students in the state,” said Nebraska Education Commissioner Matt Blomstedt.

The state Department of Education has a website called Launch Nebraska that provides guidance for schools this summer and beyond, though officials plan to update the guidance soon to focus more specifically on fall.

Current guidance includes that students and staff wear face masks and social distance whenever possible, and stresses that school districts should work with local health departments to come up with a plan.
