School District 23 (SD23) is confirming COVID-19 exposures at three more schools.

Community members at Black Mountain Elementary, George Elliot Secondary and École Kelowna Secondary have tested positive for the virus.

They are self-isolating at home with support from local public health teams. Interior Health follows up with anyone potentially exposed to a confirmed case directly through contact tracing.
