Salina USD 305 today announced another confirmed case of COVID-19 at one of its schools. This time, it was at Salina South High School.

Since Sept. 3, when the district began posting information about USD 305 students or staff members who tested positive for COVID-19, nine cases have been reported.

In a notification to parents/guardians of Salina South students, Dr. Charles Kipp, principal, wrote, "Today, the Saline County Health Department notified Salina USD 305 of a positive COVID-19 test at South High School. The Saline County Health Department is contacting anyone who needs to be notified. The intent of this letter is to ensure clear communication with South High School families."
