COVID-19 outbreak declared over at Holy Cross CSS

December 14, 2021

The following letter has been sent to the Holy Cross CSS community, informing staff and families that the school’s COVID-19 outbreak is over.

Dear Parents/Guardians and Staff, 

I am pleased to inform you that Peterborough Public Health has declared the COVID-19 outbreak over at Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School. 

The two cases associated with the school outbreak have been resolved. Fourteen full days have elapsed since the last positive case was at the school. Ministry of Health guidelines indicate that the school meets the criteria for declaring the outbreak over.

As always, we continue to follow all public health and provincial recommendations, including thorough cleaning and disinfecting of all areas; frequent and proper handwashing by everyone in the building; wearing masks; maintaining physical distancing to the fullest extent possible, and following any other steps directed by Peterborough Public Health. 

We continue to ask all students and staff to complete the daily self-assessment for symptoms before arriving at school: https://covid-19.ontario.ca/school-screening

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Sherry Davis
Principal
