The Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board has dismissed a class of students from one of its schools in Windsor due to COVID-19.
The board says it has been directed by the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit to dismiss a class from St. Rose Catholic Elementary School, in the area of Wyandotte Street and St. Rose, after receiving notification of one confirmed case of COVID-19.
The students impacted by the dismissal have been told they are not to attend school Monday. The health unit will notify those students when they are able to return to school.
Students and staff who may have been directly affected will be contacted by the health unit which will give directions for them to follow.
The board advises parents to continue to monitor their children for symptoms of COVID-19 each morning and to keep them at home and call their healthcare provider for further direction if they are ill, or still waiting for results of a COVID-19 test.
