However, on Tuesday morning, principal Jamie Patenall stated the test result for the individual came back negative.
“We are pleased to report that we do not have a COVID case at CCI,” he posted on the school’s website. “Any students and staff who were asked to self-isolate may now return to school and regular activities.
“We appreciate that this may have been a stressful time for students, staff and parents. To help keep students and staff safe, we always work closely with our local health agencies to respond to issues, and we follow all their recommendations.”
