A confirmed case of COVID-19 has affected over two dozen people at Chatham-Kent Secondary School.

The Lambton Kent District School Board has confirmed 19 students and 13 staff have been dismissed to quarantine, but officials say those numbers may change as contact tracing continues.

Public Health continues to reach out to any staff or students who might have come in contact with the virus.

The school remains open, and students who’ve been sent home are continuing their classes by remote learning.
