RancheView School upgraded to watch
RancheView School has been upgraded to watch status, as five or more cases of COVID-19 have been identified at the school in the last two weeks. The school’s COVID situation was declared an outbreak earlier this month, but the school received notice from Alberta Health Services a fifth child had tested positive for the virus on Monday (Oct. 12), principal Sharon Cronin confirmed in a letter sent to parents. Cronin also noted the child who tested positive had not attended school during their communicable period. Additional safety measures may be put in place due to the elevated status and Alberta Health Services is working with the school to monitor the situation.
