A COVID-19 case has been confirmed at WP Sandin Public High School in Shellbrook.

Students from Grade 8 classrooms and associated staff will be self-isolating until midnight on May 28, the Saskatchewan Rivers School Division said in a statement.

“There is no evidence that the case was acquired or transmitted at school and in-person learning will safely continue for the rest of the school. The school division was informed of positive COVID-19 test results and communication is being shared with the classrooms/cohorts, the connected staff, as well as with the school community,” the Tuesday night statement read. “The learning program will continue remotely only for those students and staff affected while in-person learning will continue for the rest of the school. Privacy concerns prevent sharing of further details of the case.”
