Information About COVID-19 Case In School Community

Posted November 27, 2020

Dear Wolverine Families,

Wellington Dufferin Guelph Public Health (WDGPH) has recently investigated a COVID-19 exposure in our school community. They have determined that this case does not create any risk to other students, staff, or the public beyond the general community risk.  No classes will be closed, and no additional students will be self-isolated in this situation.

Our building is safe and open for students and staff. The school has been thoroughly cleaned, as a precaution.

Keeping you informed is part of our commitment to you. Keeping personal information private, including the identity of the person, is also part of our commitment, as it is also part of Ontario’s privacy’s laws. It protects anyone already sick or at risk.

Please review the UGDSB’s Managing COVID-19 Symptoms and Cases in Schools information, that is located on the board website for more information on the process and steps Public Health takes when a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19, and the process to return to school.  As a community, we must continue to take care of ourselves and each other.  We can do this by following the advice of Public Health and government officials.  Please review their advice on how you can protect yourself and others from COVID-19.  For more information, you can also view the standard School Case Information Letter from Public Health at the link below.

If you have any questions, please contact Public Health at 519-822-2715, ext. 7006.

Sincerely,

Brent Bloch

Principal
