On March 9, 2022, the Ministry of Education lifted a number of measures that were previously in our schools, including mandatory masking, cohorting and physical distancing. These changes came into effect on Monday, March 17th.
Understanding that the recent changes may impact parents’ decisions, we are now asking parents to confirm their choice of learning environment for child(ren) for the remainder of the 2021-2022 school year.
