​亲爱的家长/监护人：

我们在整个夏季都努力为2020-21学年做准备。与阿尔伯塔省教育厅、阿尔伯塔卫生部、其他学区以及我们组织内的会议频繁进行，以制定CBE返校计划的指导方针。

7月21日，省政府宣布所有阿尔伯塔学区将于9月返校开展面授课程。今天，CBE发布了其1号方案返校计划。该计划包含有关学校内将采取的措施以保护学生和员工健康的信息。同时，还有常见问题和众多政府和CBE资源。

随着省内更多信息的逐步得到，CBE的2020-21返校计划有可能进行调整。我们将在整个夏季和整个学年的进展中继续更新我们的网站上的附加细节，包括额外的常见问题。学校校长将于八月底为您提供更多针对各校的具体信息。

针对2020-21学年，我们将提供一种名为“Hub在线学习”的方式供1-12年级学生选择。这是一种短期的在线学习方式，面向那些不愿意返校上课的家庭。Hub在线学习是在线教学和自主学习的结合，需要学生和家长共同做出重大承诺。与面授学习不同，它无法提供相同的机会和支持。

为了成功，这种学习方式需要家长的全力投入和协助。与2020年春季的紧急居家学习不同，Hub在线学习要求学生全日制参与学习，并达到阿尔伯塔课程标准的各项目标。请访问我们的网站以了解有关Hub在线学习的信息。注册过程的详细信息将于八月底提供。一旦学生注册成功，只有在学年中的一个过渡节点（2021年2月1日）才能转换回面授学习。学习中心可能包括来自单个学校或多个学校的学生群体。

感谢您持续的耐心和支持，我们将持续提供有关返校的详细更新。请访问我们网站上的COVID-19页面获取更多信息。

祝好，

Christopher Usih
CBE高级管理官

​Dear Parents/Guardians

We have been working hard throughout the summer to prepare for the 2020-21 school year. There have been many meetings with Alberta Education, Alberta Health, other school boards and across our organization to develop guidelines for the CBE re-entry plan.

On July 21, the provincial government announced all Alberta school boards will return to in-person classes in September. Today, the CBE posted its Scenario 1 re-entry plan for schools. This plan includes information on measures that will be in place in schools to help protect the health of our students and staff. There are also frequently asked questions and numerous government and CBE resources.

The CBE's 2020-21 re-entry plan is subject to change as more information becomes available from the province. We will continue to update our website with additional details – including additional FAQs – throughout the summer and as the situation evolves throughout the school year. Principals will provide additional school-specific information in late August.

A hub online learning approach will be offered to students in Grades 1-12 for the 2020-21 school year only. This is a short-term, online learning approach for families who are not comfortable returning to in-person classes. The hub online approach is a combination of online instruction and independent work and requires a significant commitment from students and parents. It will not offer the same opportunities or supports as in-person learning.

To be successful, this type of learning requires committed parent involvement and assistance. Unlike emergency at-home learning that took place in the spring of 2020, hub online learning requires students to participate full time in their learning and to meet the outcomes in the Alberta Programs of Study. Visit our website for information on the hub learning approach. Details about the registration process will be provided later in August. Once a student is registered there will be one transition point during the school year (February 1, 2021) for students to return to in-person learning. Learning hubs may include groups of students from individual schools, or from multiple schools.

Thank you for your ongoing patience and support as we continue to update information on the ways were are working to keep our students and staff safe when we return to school this fall.

We will continue to provide you with ongoing updates as details on re-entry are confirmed. Please visit the COVID-19 page on our website for more information.

Take care,​

Christopher Usih
Chief Superintendent of Schools
