West Elgin Secondary School will remain closed today and Friday, during which time all classes will shift to asynchronous remote learning.
Teachers will connect with students through their usual online platforms.
This is due to an early morning fire Wednesday, which occurred prior to the start of normal school hours.
It was contained to a single area of the school’s basement, and no one was injured.
The Thames Valley School Board advises it is too early to say whether the school will re-open on Monday.
The board will provide an update before the end of the day, Friday.
