OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Nebraska hospital monitoring five American aid workers who were exposed to Ebola in Sierra Leone says they were all doing well Tuesday.

Nebraska Medical Center spokesman Taylor Wilson says none of the people being monitored in Omaha was displaying symptoms of Ebola of Tuesday.

One person remained in the hospital’s biocontainment unit Tuesday as a precaution. That person developed some symptoms Sunday night, but then improved Monday.

Wilson says that person will leave the isolation unit Thursday if they remain free of symptoms and return to a less restrictive location on the hospital campus where the others are staying.

The aid workers were evacuated from Sierra Leone after one of their colleagues contracted the deadly virus.

The Richardson County Sheriff’s Office says William Lester was headed south on Nebraska Highway 67 late Saturday night or early Sunday morning when he lost control of his pickup when he didn’t stop at the intersection with U.S. Highway 73.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A school board has approved a plan to convert Benson High School in Omaha into a career academy, which is a new twist on the traditional vocational schools.

The $1.8 million proposal to convert the school into Omaha Public Schools’ only career-oriented high school was unanimously approved Monday.

Career academies emphasize job training and give students multiple pathways to earn college credit or industry certifications. Benson students would study business and entrepreneurship; health professions; or construction and design.

Students will also learn how to obtain a job straight out of high school, or how to pursue a higher education degree.

Benson officials say that they need $1.8 million and a six-year commitment from the Omaha Public Schools’ school board to get the career academies going. The cost of the academy includes teacher training, eight new staff hires and other start-up costs.
