There are two new schools in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows listed by Fraser Health as having had exposure to COVID-19.

Westview secondary on April 20 and 21, and Golden Ears elementary on April 16, 19 and 20 were attended by a person with a confirmed case of the virus.

Fraser Health has listed new schools exposed to the virus in School District 42 several times a week through April.

Fraser Health has initiated contact tracing to identify individuals who need to self-isolate or self-monitor for symptoms. Those households that do not receive a phone call or letter should continue having students attend school. Those students and staff who show symptoms must stay home.
