The assistant principal of a renowned Queens yeshiva has tested positive for coronavirus, The Post has learned.

Yeshiva Har Torah in Little Neck canceled classes after Rabbi Etan Ehrenfeld contracted the contagion, according to a note sent to families late Tuesday.

“He has given us permission to share his name for purposes of helping identify those who have been contact with him,” the letter states.

The private K-8 Jewish religious school on the Nassau County border has alerted the Department of Health and is awaiting further guidance.

Ehrenfeld is suffering from mild symptoms and is quarantined, the note states.

School officials are advising anyone who came within “six feet” of Ehrenfeld in recent days to quarantine themselves and to consult a doctor as a precaution.

“Thank you for your patience as we navigate this situation,” the letter states.

Founded in 1989, Yeshiva Har Torah has a student population of roughly 700.

Schools across New York have been shuttering at a rapid clip this week out of coronavirus concerns.
