On May 4, 2009, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that a 14-year-old student had H1N1 virus, also known as swine flu.

All school events – athletic, educational, and fine arts – were canceled until further notice.

The CDC changed its policy on school closures on May 5, and ELCA began to prepare to reopen on May 7.

The students returned to class as normal, but new safety regulations were put in place to prevent transmission of swine flu by student-to-student contact.
