In a letter to parents and students, the public school division is warning everyone to keep an eye out for Stanley.
Michael Diachuk, director of education at the public school division, also said they are taking additional action.
“If your child walks to and from school, please make arrangements for transportation to and from school.”
Students will be kept inside schools during recess and lunch.
The catholic division is also under lockdown until further notice.
Both school divisions say the added measures will remain in place until they are certain the danger has passed.
