Clear Creek Amana High School is 100 percent off-site today due to a positive case reported to school officials late Wednesday.

According to a news release from the school, officials are aware of a large gathering Saturday night with many CCA students in attendance, potentially increasing their risk of exposure.

The student was in school Monday and all mitigation strategies were followed correctly at the school, and Johnson County Public Health confirmed that students and staff would not be considered “close contacts” because of those mitigation strategies.

The release goes on to say, “The closure of school and activities today is a direct result of the choices students are making and we encourage families to recognize the unfortunate outcome and how it affects everyone. CCA will be making a decision about school Friday and communicating with families by the end of the day on Thursday.”
