Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the teenager is a student from St Thomas More College in Sunnybank on Brisbane's southside and that all students at the school had been sent home as a "precaution".
Ms Palaszczuk said the case had emerged this morning and was "under investigation".
Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said authorities were still working through the movements of the student who tested positive, but that "she was at school in the last few days".
Late on Friday, Queensland Health confirmed the student had been active in the community while infectious.
All students and families of the college have been put into 14 days mandatory home quarantine.
