In total, six members of the school tested positive for the disease, although KFL&A Public Health said only two of those cases were transmitted in a school setting.
“During the last two weeks, we worked diligently with public health to take all necessary steps to ensure that all students and staff can return to a safe learning environment,” Porter-Eves said.
According to KFL&A Public Health’s COVID-19 dashboard, the two cases linked to the school’s outbreak are now resolved.
