NDSS, according to Island Health, is one of six Nanaimo schools currently listed on the school exposure page.

It and nearby John Barsby are the only two secondary schools.

The central Vancouver Island area remains a COVID-19 hotspot, with roughly two-thirds of Island Health’s currently active COVID-19 cases.
