More Local Schools Affected by COVID

Two more Chatham-Kent schools are dealing with cases of COVID-19.

The Lambton Kent District School Board says there has been a confirmed case in the school community at Indian Creek Public School this week.

There’s also been another case identified in the WDSS community. That brings the total number of confirmed cases at the Wallaceburg high school in the last week and a half to three.

However, the public board says there is no impact to any of its schools, and no staff or students have been dismissed.

There are now five schools in Chatham-Kent with at least one confirmed case within their respective school communities, including A.A. Wright in Wallaceburg, and McNaughton Avenue Public School, Indian Creek, and UCC in Chatham.

Parents are reminded to monitor children for COVID symptoms and keep kids home if they seem sick.
