Message to Families About Changes to School in January due to the Provincewide Shutdown

Earlier today, the Ministry of Education announced the closure of in-person schools to students following the winter break in accordance with the Provincewide Shutdown to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

In-person elementary students will return to in-person learning on Monday, January 11, 2021. In-person secondary students will return to in-person learning on Monday, January 25, 2021.

All elementary and secondary students will be learning virtually during the period that in-person schools are closed. We recognize that this shutdown will have a detrimental impact on many families that we serve and our goal is to support children through what may be an unsettling time.
