Ōtāhuhu College has become the 10th Auckland school to be linked to the current Delta cluster, which has grown to over 200 cases.
In a post to Facebook, Ōtāhuhu College has confirmed a person at the school has tested positive for Covid-19.
All students and staff are now being considered as close contacts and must isolate.
More than 150,000 community tests have been carried out in Auckland since the city moved to level 4.
It's been the biggest week for testing in metro Auckland.
About 20 per cent, almost 28,000 tests, have been done on people who identify as one of eight Pacific ethnicities. This is the highest rate of testing per population of any group.
Northern Region Health Coordination Centre Lead (and Counties Manukau Health CEO) Margie Apa says Pacific communities always respond in high numbers to get tested when there is a community case in Auckland.
"On behalf of the whole health sector I want to say thank you to all Pacific peoples for once again turning out in huge numbers to get a Covid-19 test. We appreciate what it means to move around in level 4 and the significant contribution you are making to the national Covid-19 response."
Apa said NRHCC was "deeply concerned and disappointed by the racist messages received by members of our Pacific community on social media in recent days".
"Our Pacific community is doing the right thing by getting tested and heeding the call to stay at home. We will not tolerate messages of hate at this time and ask anyone receiving these messages to please report it.
"As the director general of health Ashley Bloomfield said today, this behaviour is gutless and disappointing."

The locations span the Auckland region now - from North Shore to West Auckland, East Auckland and South Auckland.
Anyone who has been to a location of interest at the same time as a positive case is automatically deemed to be a close contact and must self-isolate for 14 days since they were potentially exposed.
Because of the highly contagious nature of the Covid Delta variant, that person's whole household is also immediately required to self-isolate.
Those affected are asked to get a Covid test and to contact Healthline on 0800 611 116.
Aucklanders in particular, are still strongly encouraged to check the growing list regularly as it is being updated every two hours.
The ministry's locations of interest page now includes a search tab that allows a person to enter a suburb or business - making it easier for people to quickly see which locations might affect them.
