Premier Stephen McNeil announced that all students, Pre-Primary to 12, will not return to school this year and that formal learning at home will end on Friday, June 5, 2020.

What does this mean for families?

• To prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Nova Scotia, all public schools remain closed for the 2019-2020 school year.
• At-home learning continues for students until June 5.
• Many of you have reached out to ask when your child’s personal items can be retrieved from schools. At this time, schools are not accessible. When it’s possible to access schools safely, we will let you know.

Please remember that the well-being of your family should be your top priority. Learning-at-home is meant to offer opportunities to learn during a pandemic, not to replicate school. If you find that it’s too much for your family, please reach out to your child’s teacher or principal.

Be safe!
