Premier Doug Ford announces that all schools will move online! The province will continue to keep an eye on the data to determine when it is safe to return children and staff to the classrooms.
Boards are being asked to make provisions to continue to provide in-person supports for students with special needs.
Child care for all non-school aged children will remain open BUT before and after school programs will be closed. Free emergency child care for school-aged children for healthcare and front line workers will be provided.
The Premier says the problems are not in our schools but in our communities, but he did say bringing kids back after a week off in the community is a risk he will not take.
