PRINCE ALBERT- May 6, 2021 – This evening, officials from the Saskatchewan Health Authority identified a positive COVID-19 case at École St Anne School in Prince Albert.
Communication has been shared with the specific classroom/cohort, as well as the school community. The Saskatchewan Health Authority is proceeding with their assessment of the case and all individuals deemed to be close contacts have been provided instructions.
We want to reassure families that school will resume for in-person learning for all other students on Friday, May 7, 2021. To protect privacy, we are not able to share or discuss details. The cohort impacted by this case has been notified and provided with instructions. The students and families will be receiving updates using the Edsby platform. Our thoughts and prayers are with this member of our school community, and we hope they are doing well. We all have a shared responsibility to decrease the risk of COVID-19 entering schools.
Thank you to everyone for continuing to be diligent in performing daily health screening, staying home if ill, calling HealthLine 811 if exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms, practicing proper hand hygiene, maintaining physical distancing as much as possible, wearing a mask when appropriate, and doing everything we can to keep each other safe. We also strongly urge everyone to continue to follow all Public Health Orders and protocols.
