The school has about 450 students learning in person this year, they are split into two cohorts of about 225 students each.

Several hours later, school leaders learned that a student in the other cohort had also tested positive.

“I think we were all hopeful that we could manage this, and lead through this. I think it’s just another lesson in the COVID pandemic that as much as we prepare, as much as we take precautions, we can’t control the outcome,” Weld Re-8 School District Superintendent Alan Kaylor said.

This means that all of the roughly 450 students who had chosen to physically attend classes will be learning remotely until at least Sept. 8.

The district said there are about 150 students from the school who had opted for 100% remote learning this year. Their schedule is not impacted by these positive tests.
