Director of Education at Avon Maitland District School Board Dr. Lisa Walsh
says they’re developing a plan to send students back to school safely and according to provincial guidelines, recently announced by Education Minister Stephen Lecce.
There are some logistical challenges which comes with a hybrid method like transportation.
Walsh says the board’s ultimate goal would be keeping families together regardless of what grade the siblings are in but that might not always be possible.
If it’s determined social distancing would not be possible for the fall, Walsh said the board would look at acquiring PPE.
