Whitehorse RCMP have completed their investigation into the use of holds and isolation spaces at Jack Hulland Elementary School, but are offering no details on their findings. 

In a news release last week, police said officers with the detachment's general investigation section have spoken with 190 people and reviewed more than 600 reports obtained from the school, the Education department, and parents and caregivers since November  2021. 

"The investigation remained a priority for the Detachment while officers also balanced emergent investigations presenting concerns for public safety," the news release reads.

"The scope and scale of this investigation meant that it required significant resources and dedication from the officers involved. The investigators want to thank all those who have come forward to speak with police and share their experiences as part of the investigation."
