今天下午，政府宣布由于COVID-19疫情，所有课程立即取消，时间无限。我们感谢政府倾听学校董事会和家长的意见，以支持学生、员工和家庭的健康与安全。

请不要将您的学生送到学校，直至另行通知，包括2020年3月16日星期一。早放和晚放班活动也取消。

每​​个学校将提供工作人员，以确保如学生到校，将联系家长并要求立即接走他们的孩子。

接下来的几天我们将向您发送更多信息，包括取回个人物品、归还图书等详细安排。学校将制定一份接送时间表，并与家长进行沟通。

请注意，明天将停运黄色校车和其他专门运输工具。

亚伯达省教育部表示，每位K-12学生将获得最终成绩，并将进入下一年级。省级考试，如省级成就测试，将取消。此时，与顺利进入高等教育机构相关的文凭考试将继续。每位符合条件的12年级学生将能够毕业。我们将继续与亚伯达省教育部合作解决这些细节问题。

在接下来的几天里，根据情况改为在线学习，卡尔加里教育局将提供更多信息和支持。

政府还表示，老师和其他员工应继续工作，可以选择在学校或工作地点办公。春假将按原计划进行。春假期间，学校建筑将关闭，学校工作人员将不会工作。

我们知道您有很多问题。我们将在确保细节确认后继续向您更新。

感谢您的耐心和支持。

​​​​This afternoon, the government announced that all classes are cancelled immediately and indefinitely due to COVID-19. We thank the government for listening to​ school boards and parents to support the health and safety of students, staff and families.

Please do not send your students to school Monday, March 16, 2020 and until further notice. Before and after school programs are also cancelled.

Staff will be available at each​​​ school to ensure that, if students show up, parents will be contacted and expected to pick up their child immediately.

More information will be sent to you in the coming days with details on when to pick up personal belongings, return library books, etc. Schools will create a pick up schedule which will be communicated to parents.

Please note that yellow school buses and other specialized transportation will not be running tomorrow.

Alberta Education has stated that every K-12 student will receive a final mark and students will progress to their next grade level next year. Provincial assessments, such as provincial achievement tests, will be cancelled. At this time, diploma exams essential for post-secondary acceptance will continue. Every student who is eligible to graduate from Grade 12 this year will graduate. We will continue to work with Alberta Education on these details.

In the coming days, the CBE will be providing more information and supports for online learning, as appropriate.

The government has also indicated that teachers and other staff are expected to work, either from their school or workplace. Spring break will continue as scheduled. During spring break, school buildings will be closed and school-based staff will not be working during this time.

We know you have many questions. We will continue to update you as more details are confirmed.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Chief Superintendent of Schools
