St. Gabriel Catholic Elementary School will be closing for a week due to an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases there, the school board announced Friday afternoon.
Communications Coordinator Stephen Fields says the closure comes as a recommendation from the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit. He says the decision was made in the best interests of the health and safety of students and staff.
