Voluntary Asymptomatic COVID-19 Testing

April 09, 2021

​In a further effort to combat the spread of COVID-19 in our communities, the Lambton Kent District School Board, St. Clair Catholic District School Board, Conseil scolaire catholique Providence and Conseil scolaire Viamonde have added additional voluntary asymptomatic COVID-19 testing clinics to the testing clinic schedule. These two additional clinics will run during the spring break on Thursday, April 15th @ John McGregor Secondary School in Chatham and Friday, April 16th @ Great Lakes Secondary School in Sarnia.

The additional clinics are available to asymptomatic school staff, students, childcare staff, childcare children, and school bus drivers associated with all schools for the four Boards.
