A school in Grantham is one of ten to report they have confirmed or suspected cases of coronavirus infections since some children returned on June 1.
Years One, Six and Reception classes returned to the classroom last Monday.
Since then Lincolnshire County Council said two school staff have been confirmed positive, while two results have come back negative and eight are still waiting.
The schools are in Lincoln, Boston, Gainsborough and Grantham.
Two Lincoln schools have already confirmed cases. One closed completely and the other sent a "bubble" of classmates and teachers home.
On Friday, Bishop King Church of England primary school closed after a member of staff tested positive for coronavirus.
And on Monday, St Faith & St Martin Church of England junior school sent one of its "bubbles" of six home after the parent of one of its students tested positive.
Derek Ward, Director of Public Health at Lincolnshire County Council, said the authority had been supporting head teachers with infectious diseases "for a long time".
The identity of the Grantham School was not given.
