Four more individuals at an elementary school in York Region have tested positive for COVID-19 since the school was closed temporarily because of an outbreak.

Holy Name Catholic Elementary School in King City moved to online learning after the closure last week.

The York Catholic District School Board first reported five cases at Holy Name. The school reports there are now nine individuals infected.

A Woodbridge elementary school, Our Lady of Fatima, was also temporarily closed when eight people tested positive.

The health unit's investigation into both cases confirmed COVID-19 transference between students.
