COVID Identified, Parents Called, School Open

December 9, 2020 – the Saskatchewan Health Authority informed us that there was one case of COVID-19 in an individual at Ecole Wascana Plains School. 

For the safety of students and staff, and in consultation with Public Health, we have informed all close contacts and provided them information about self- isolation. The affected students and class will begin remote learning on Friday, December 11, 2020

Information letters will be sent to families on December 9.  The school remains open for all other students.

As this information was shared during the school day, there was no automated message made to school families.

If there are any additional close contacts at the school, they will be contacted directly by Public Health. A close contact is someone who has been within two metres (six feet) of someone for a cumulative 15 minutes. 

If any staff, student or school family members show any symptoms, they should please stay home and contact Healthline 811. Symptoms are described here.
