The confirmation was given with a letter from Northern Health that was sent to students and staff.
It stated that the exposure was between November 25th and 27th in the main building, in rooms 1-317, 2-110, and 3-201.
Northern Health said anyone that was there and is not protected should stay home for 21 days from the date of the exposure to help prevent further spread.
