Clover Park Tech reopens campuses after disinfecting, offers online updates for students
Two Clover Park Technical College campuses are back in operation Thursday (March 5) after they were closed for cleaning as a precaution against coronavirus (COVID-19).
Clover Park Technical College suspended Lakewood and South Hill campus operations Wednesday (March 4) after reports of a student under quarantine with symptoms similar to coronavirus.
In a message posted Thursday, College President Joyce Loveday said in a statement: “The South Hill and Lakewood campuses have undergone a disinfecting process.
“As is the regular practice at CPTC, custodial staff go through all areas of the campus to disinfect touch point areas on a nightly basis. Disinfecting supplies are available for employees who wish to perform a secondary cleaning of any spaces they and/or their students use. Lakewood campus members can pick up supplies in Building 17, Room 104 between 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. (Monday through Friday), and on the South Hill campus at the campus reception area.”
On Wednesday, the college announced closures for cleaning after an ill student with symptoms similar to COVID-19 visited the South Hill campus while symptomatic, according to information the college posted Wednesday.
