The following letter was sent to the St. Alphonsus Catholic Elementary School community in Peterborough, informing students, families and staff that two individuals at the school had received a positive test result for COVID-19.

Dear parents, guardians and staff,

The identity of the individuals is protected by privacy legislation and will not be shared.

What we can share is that the individuals have been isolating at home and they did not attend school while they were infectious. Peterborough Public Health has investigated and has determined that no St. Alphonsus CES students or staff members are deemed high-risk contacts related to this case.
