SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — Seminole County Public Schools said 33 people are quarantining after they were possibly exposed to COVID-19 at a high school.
The district announced Thursday night that someone who tested positive for COVID-19 visited Lake Brantley High School.
Last week, 18 people were asked to quarantine after a person tested positive for coronavirus went into Lake Mary Elementary School.

In both cases, it is not known if the person infected was a student or staff member.
At Altamonte Springs Elementary, two teachers are quarantining.
The district said it is prepared and doing the best it can to prevent a crisis.
“I think our school board has a very good plan and working with the state and all of our partners to identify those so it doesn’t become a ‘crisis,’” a school leader said.
The district said everyone quarantining has been switched to remote learning.
