SANTA YNEZ VALLEY, Calif. - Winter break came early for dozens of private school students in Los Olivos after a virus outbreak force administrators to close the classrooms early.

Dunn School sent home all of its students after signs of a Norovirus contaminating the school's grounds.

Norovirus is a very contagious virus that inflames the intestines and is transmitted by an infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces.

Some students were infected but are expected to be okay.

The principal tells Central Coast News the school will reopen for class in January.
