Archie Stouffer Elementary School students in a Grade 5/6 class have been identified as close contacts of a person who has tested positive for COVID-19.
An April 2 e-mail to families in the Grade 5/6 class from the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge district health unit notes that students attending that class on March 30, March 31 or April 1 have been “identified as a close contact of an individual who is positive for COVID-19.”
The letter serves as official notice of mandatory quarantine, noted as a legal requirement to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and testing recommendation for those children.
