Dear Parents and Guardians,

Premier Doug Ford announced this afternoon that Ontario schools will remain closed to in-person learning for the remainder of this school year. 17³Ô¹ÏÍø (NNDSB) students will continue to learn remotely until the end of the month.

While it is disappointing that staff and students won’t be able to see each other in person before the school year ends, the board looks forward to a return to face-to-face instruction.

If you have questions about your child’s learning, please reach out to their teacher.

±·±·¶Ù³§µþ’s website features resources for families, including learning and mental health supports. The website, as well as the board’s and accounts, are updated regularly and are a great source of news and information for families.

We learned today that school boards are authorized, after consulting with public health units, to hold outdoor graduations. NNDSB will be reaching out to the health unit to discuss the possibility of outdoor graduations. If you have a student graduating, watch for communication from your child’s school regarding their graduation ceremony.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

17³Ô¹ÏÍø

Almost six months later, school doors are beginning to re-open to welcome students back for the 2020-2021 school year. These last 25 weeks have been marked with uncertainty, personal and economic sacrifice . . . and ultimately, with success in flattening the curve of the first wave of COVID-19 in our area.

Through these discussions, the Health Unit identified additional information needed by parents and guardians as they prepare their children for a safer return to school. In an effort to help fill this gap, the Health Unit has launched COVID-19 and School Reopening – Public Health Information for Families.
