Multiple LSSD schools report COVID-19 cases, NBCHS moves to Level 4

Jan 12, 2021 | 5:15 PM

The Living Sky School Division (LSSD) has announced North Battleford Comprehensive High School (NBCHS) is imposing Level 4 restrictions of the Safe Schools Plan, following increased COVID-19 exposure.

Starting on Wednesday, NBCHS will move to Level 4 effective immediately, meaning students will engage in off-campus learning on a full-time basis for their regular curriculum. This will be in place until January 22. The decision was made after consultation with the Regional Medical Health Officer, following five positive cases at the school since January 8.

Classroom teachers will be contacting their students with their individual learning plans by tomorrow morning. NBCHS has around 940 students.

Cases of COVID-19 were diagnosed in two more individuals within LSSD, one at Maymont Central School and one at Lawrence Elementary School in North Battleford.
