On Monday morning, Ketchikan High School students were dismissed at 10:45 am, with plans to reopen the school no earlier than Wednesday. All practices and after school activities are canceled until at least Wednesday.
The school had “two additional covid cases” that prompted the closure decision, which is based on a matrix the schools in Ketchikan are using.
All students, staff, and families were advised by Principal Jason House to watch for symptoms of Covid, wear a mask, and practice social distancing.
