The Saskatchewan Health Authority is working with a Yorkton business and the Good Spirit School Division to investigate a cluster of students who have tested positive in the Yorkton Regional High School. While investigations are ongoing, at this time there is no indication that transmission happened within the school setting.
The school division will be communicating to parents later today.
More information for parents and schools can be found in the Safe Schools Plan Parent Information Packages at https://www.saskatchewan.ca/government/news-and-media/2020/august/27/safe-schools-plan-parent-packages.
If an outbreak is declared, all parents of that school will receive notification and the declaration will be posted to www.saskatchewan.ca/COVID19-Latest-Updates.
If two or more people test positive for COVID-19, and are all linked to a specific school setting within a specified time period, an outbreak is declared for that school.
