Guest Spot–SD70 Message from the Superintendent

An excerpt from the most recent message to parents from SD70’s Superintendent:

April3 – We continue to abide by the directive and advice of the Provincial Health Officer and the Ministry of Education, meaning that schools remain “shuttered” with access only for maintenance and cleaning purposes, retrieval of essential items and soon services for children of front-line essential service workers. Teachers have been reaching out to students and parents this week to reconnect and to explore what learning might look like in the future, and it is clear that there is a wide range of student need and family readiness to support learning at home. A lot of consideration is going into how we address issues of equity, accessibility and capacity while balancing health and safety concerns and recommended best practices such as isolation and physical distancing. The goal is to be fully up and running in the new reality by the middle of April.
