UPDATE: COVID-19 cases identified at St. Ann’s School in Quesnel

Northern Health has released the COVID-19 exposure dates at the Catholic school and there are three of them.

They are between October 27th and the 29th, November 1st to the 5th, and November 8th through the 10th.

Northern Health says these are exposure dates and that this is not an outbreak.

A letter went out to parents on Sunday saying that there would be no school on Monday due to a lack of staff, adding that some staff were awaiting rest results.

Today, only remote online classes are taking place.

There is no word yet on what the plan is moving forward.
