Self-Reported Positive Covid-19 Result

On October 31st, our school was informed of self-reported positive COVID-19 test results. The individuals may have interacted with:

Ms. Bautista/Ms Randhawa -Kindergarten – Room113
Mr Neal – Grade 5 – Room 124
Mr. Mayner – Grade 6/7 – Room 143

This information is self-reported and has not been confirmed by Hamilton Public Health Services (HPHS). We are uncertain of the infectious period. To protect the privacy of any individual with a positive COVID-19 test result, we do not disclose their name.

Self-reporting positive COVID-19 test results is voluntary for those who choose to report, although should be encouraged.

Under updated Ministry of Health guidance, HPHS will no longer be using cohort-based dismissals for positive cases. Students and staff in a school setting are generally no longer considered high-risk contacts requiring isolation. Students and staff are encouraged to follow guidance from the Provincial COVID-19 School Screening Tool or their health care provider.

If your child is sick, please have them stay home.
