On Wednesday, October 27th, we implemented a two-week mask requirement in both elementary schools as a strategy of decreasing further spread of COVID-19 in our classrooms. This requirement is set to expire at the end of the day on Wednesday, November 10th. Please know a review and evaluation of our plan will be completed on or before November 10th by our school district and an update will be shared via email with all parents.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson said following a peak of 25 active cases in our school district last week, the number of active cases has declined over the past four days, and we are currently down to 14 active cases. The trending of our COVID-19 positive cases downward would follow similar patterns that are being reported at both the county and state levels. Of course, we will continue to closely monitor cases in our school district and will remain prepared to implement mitigation strategies to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Authorities arrived and found that the individual suspected of breaking in to the home had died at the scene. According to a statement from Sheriff Verlan Kvande, there is no current danger to the public. No further information was provided.<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota Department of Transportation is beginning a pilot study to examine the possibility of longer trucks on state roads. Last spring, state lawmakers considered legislation dealing with \u201croad trains\u201d or extra long semi trailers meant to save on fuel costs and other expenses associated with moving goods. But, the idea raised some safety concerns, so legislators decided to pass a bill to study the matter. The department is accepting applications from the transportation industry through the end of November to gather input on possible trucking routes and configurations. Among the ideas considered will be allowing cargo trailers up to 130 feet in length. The existing limit is 100 feet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A declining number of employees at the State Crime Lab in Bismarck has limited what evidence can be processed for law enforcement agencies. Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem says eight of 23 lab employees have left in the last two years, including five in 2021, because they\u2019ve been offered higher salaries elsewhere, including one employee who left for a position in Georgia where the salary was $30,000 more. The lab has eliminated its firearms and latent fingerprint divisions due to the staffing level. Stenehjem says South Dakota was doing firearms analyses for the lab, but is now overwhelmed and unable to help anymore.<\/p>\n<p>KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) \u2014 The trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has begun with the challenging task of seating jurors who haven&#8217;t already made up their minds about the man who shot three people, killing two, during a violent night of protests last summer. Rittenhouse was 17 when he traveled from his home in Illinois, just across the Wisconsin border, during protests that broke out in August 2020 after a police officer shot Jacob Blake, a Black man. Rittenhouse faces life in prison if he\u2019s convicted on one of the homicide counts against him. Judge Bruce Schroeder told attorneys he thinks picking the 20-member jury pool can be accomplished in a day. The trial that begins Monday is expected to last two to three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>In world and national news&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) \u2014 President Joe Biden is taking a markedly more humble tone for a U.S. leader on climate change. Biden acknowledged to a U.N. climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland on Monday that the United States and other energy-gulping developed nations bear much of the blame for climate change. Biden says developed nations bear \u201coverwhelming obligations\u201d to poorer nations now struggling with climate damage. Biden has told world leaders at the summit that the actions they take this decade on global warming will be decisive in sparing future generations from suffering.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) \u2014 World leaders are turning up the heat and resorting to end-of-the-world rhetoric in an attempt to bring new urgency to sputtering international climate negotiations. The metaphors were dramatic and mixed at the start of the talks known as COP26 on Monday. For British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, global warming was \u201ca doomsday device\u201d strapped to humanity. United Nations Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres said people are \u201cdigging our own graves.\u201d They spoke at the opening of the world leaders\u2019 summit portion of the U.N. climate conference. The conference is aimed at getting governments to commit to curbing carbon emissions fast enough to keep global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 A majority of the Supreme Court have signaled they would allow abortion providers to pursue a court challenge to a Texas law that has virtually ended abortion in the nation\u2019s second-largest state after six weeks of pregnancy. But it was unclear Monday how quickly the court would rule and whether it would issue an order blocking the law that has been in effect for two months, or require providers to ask a lower court put the law on hold. Two conservative justices, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, voted in September to allow the law to take effect, but they raised questions Monday about its novel structure. The law was written to make it difficult to mount legal challenges and subjects clinics, doctors and anyone who facilitates an abortion to large financial penalties.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 About 9,000 New York City municipal workers were put on unpaid leave for refusing to comply with a COVID-19 vaccine mandate that took effect Monday and thousands of city firefighters have called out sick in an apparent protest over the requirement. Mayor Bill de Blasio said about 9 in 10 city workers covered by the mandate have gotten vaccinated and there have been no disruptions to city services as a result of staffing shortages. New York has more than 300,000 city employees. Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said firehouses remained open but 18 of the department\u2019s 350 units were out of service and \u201cmany units are understaffed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 As deadlines loom for military and defense civilians to get mandated COVID-19 vaccines, senior leaders are wrestling with the fate of tens of thousands who flatly refuse the shots or are seeking exemptions, and how to make sure they are treated fairly and equally. It could be a career-ending decision, or could trigger transfers, travel restrictions and requirements to repay bonuses. Exemption decisions will be made by unit commanders around the world, on what the Pentagon says will be a \u201ccase-by-case\u201d basis. That raises a vexing issue for military leaders who are pushing a vaccine mandate seen as critical to maintaining a healthy force, but want to avoid a haphazard approach with those who refuse.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>KENOSHA, Wis.
