Regina Public Schools says the Saskatchewan Health Authority has identified COVID-19 cases at four schools — and at the division’s office itself.

Affected students have started remote learning.

One case each was reported at:

• Ecole Wascana Plains; affected students return Feb. 5
• Martin Collegiate; affected students return Feb. 2
• Balfour Collegiate; affected students return Feb. 8
• Winston Knoll Collegiate; affected students return Feb. 5
• Sheldon-Williams Collegiate; affected students return Feb. 8
• Ethel Milliken School; affected students return Feb. 4

Any additional close contacts will be notified directly by Public Health.

Later Monday, the division said a case had been reported at its office on Fourth Avenue. Close contacts of the case are to stay out of the office until the completion of their quarantine period.

The Regina Catholic School Division, meanwhile, reported a case at St. Timothy School. The impacted classroom was closed, but the division didn’t provide a return date.

All other classrooms remained open and classes went on as usual Monday.
