More details are coming out about the return to school at the Avon Maitland District School Board.
The board says approximately 9% of students are opting for remote learning and those families will hear from the online learning team directly.
During the week of September 8th, the board says invitations for an early orientation for students with special needs, vulnerable students or those who may require a more supported entry, will be made by individual schools.
Then during the week of September 14th, all other students will be part of a staggered entry plan to enable a slow introduction to the new health and safety protocols.
The schedule will include:
Monday, September 14: Only students with last names beginning with A-G will attend
Tuesday, September 15: Only students with last names beginning with H-N will attend
Wednesday, September 16: Only students with last names beginning with O-Z will attend
Thursday, September 17: All students begin daily attendance.
Students enrolled in remote (online) learning will begin Thursday, September 17.
Kindergarten students will begin their staggered start on September 14 as well. Details include:
Monday, September 14: JK interviews
Tuesday, September 15: SK students attend
Wednesday, September 16: SK and half of the JK students attend
Thursday, September 17: All students begin daily attendance
