我们希望就我们的复课计划向您提供更新，在下个月我们将继续完善细节，以在1号情景下回到面对面授课。

如果您还没有时间，请查阅我们的复课计划，其中包括一系列的措施，以确保学生和员工的安全。我们将根据新信息和更新不断更新该计划。

学校工作人员和4-12年级学生的口罩使用

教育部长Adriana LaGrange和首席医疗官Deena Hinshaw博士于8月4日宣布了省级学校重新开放指南的更新。所有4至12年级的学校工作人员和学生在无法保持社交距离的情况下，包括在校车上，将被要求佩戴口罩。在学校里，这将包括走廊和公共场所，以及无法保持社交距离的教室。该省表示，对于因医疗或其他需求无法佩戴口罩的学生和工作人员，将会给予豁免。目前，幼儿园至三年级的学生可以选择佩戴口罩。

该省将为所有学生和工作人员提供两个可重复使用的布口罩。关于如何分发这些口罩的细节正在确定中，我们将在获知更多信息后提供更新。家庭也可以考虑为他们的孩子购买额外的口罩。

我们将在下周提供关于学校里口罩使用的详细信息。

Hub在线学习的注册从下周开始

对于不愿意参加面对面学习的家庭，我们为1-12年级的学生提供Hub在线学习的方式。这种学习方式是在线教学和独立学习的结合，并需要学生和家长的重大承诺。

注册将从8月12日星期三开始，持续到8月24日下午4点。我们将与家庭合作，以适应所有注册此选项的人。家庭需要明白，这种学习方式不会提供与面对面学习相同的机会或支持。

请留意下周的电子邮件，了解更多信息和注册细节，以便您为您的家庭做出最佳决策。

保持您的了解

感谢您提出的各种问题和评论。我们将持续更新我们的网站，提供额外的信息，一旦细节得到确认。

在接下来的几周里，我们将继续向您提供更新。请访问我们网站上的COVID-19页面获取更多信息。

谢谢。

We wanted to provide an update on our re-entry plans as we continue to refine the details of how we will return to in-person classes under Scenario 1 next month.

If you haven’t had a chance, please review our re-entry plan that includes a variety of measures to keep students and staff safe. We will continue to update this plan as new information and updates are available.

Mask Use for School Staff and Students in Grades 4-12

On Aug. 4, Education Minister Adriana LaGrange and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Deena Hinshaw announced an update to provincial school re-entry guidelines. All school staff and students in Grades 4 to 12 will be required to wear masks where physical distancing cannot be maintained, including on school buses. In schools, this will include common areas such as hallways and public spaces, as well as classrooms where physical distancing cannot be maintained. The province has stated that exemptions will be made for students and staff who are unable to wear a mask due to medical or other needs. At this time, mask use for students in kindergarten to Grade 3 is optional.

The province will provide all students and staff with two reusable cloth masks. Details about how these will be distributed are being determined and we will provide an update once we know more information. Families may also consider purchasing additional masks for their children.

We will provide further details regarding mask use in schools next week.

Registration for Hub Online Learning Starts Next Week

For families who are uncomfortable returning to in-person learning we are offering a hub online learning approach for students in Grades 1-12. This approach is a combination of online instruction and independent work and requires a significant commitment from students and parents.

Registration will be open from Wednesday, Aug. 12 until 4 p.m. Monday, Aug. 24. We will work with families to accommodate all who register for this option. It is important for families to understand that this approach will not offer the same opportunities or supports as in-person learning.

Watch for an email next week with more information and registration details to help you make the best decision for your family.

Keeping You Informed

We appreciate the questions and comments you have submitted on a variety of topics. We continue to update our website with additional information as details are confirmed.

We will continue to provide you with ongoing updates in the coming weeks. Please visit the COVID-19 page on our website for more information.

Thank you.
