Central Catholic High in Pittsburgh closes again following positive covid case
Central Catholic High School in Pittsburgh’s Oakland neighborhood will be closed until Monday as students take online classes.
The school had just reopened after a previous closure that ended this week.
The new closure is due to a staff member testing positive for covid, the Diocese of Pittsburgh announced Tuesday.
The diocese on Feb. 17 announced it was switching to online classes for the rest of that week due to “several positive cases in the Central Catholic community.” The statement did not say whether these cases involved students or staff members.
The school reopened Monday, only to close again the following day.
“Throughout the covid-19 pandemic, our community has shown incredible resilience, persistence and adaptability,” Brother Tony Baginski, principal of Central Catholic High, said in a statement. “At this time, the safest place for our community to be learning is online, but we look forward to welcoming our in-person students back to Central Catholic soon.”
