| SCDSB secondary schools and adult learning centres to be closed to students Tuesday, Jan. 21 | http://cci.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/board-news/116 | SCDSB secondary schools and adult learning centres to be closed to students Tuesday, Jan. 21 | <p>On Jan. 15, the provincial branch of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) announced their intent to proceed with a rotating one-day walkout in a number of school boards across Ontario on Tuesday, Jan. 21. The Simcoe County District School Board (SCDSB) has been identified as one of the boards that will be affected on Tuesday, Jan. 21. In the SCDSB, OSSTF represents permanent and occasional secondary teachers and continuing education instructors.<br><br>Should a tentative agreement not be reached, <strong>all SCDSB secondary schools and adult learning centres will be closed to students on Tuesday, Jan. 21, as there would not be sufficient supervision to ensure student safety. All Grade 7 and 8 students at Elmvale District High School and Stayner Collegiate Institute will still report to school for classes as usual.</strong><br><br>All secondary out-of-school activities will also be cancelled on Jan. 21.<br><br><strong>Please note that all SCDSB elementary schools will remain open to students on Jan. 21.</strong><br><br>For ongoing updates, visit the <a href="https://www.scdsb.on.ca/about/labour_updates">labour updates page on the SCDSB website</a>, or follow us on social media (Twitter: @SCDSB_Schools or Facebook: www.facebook.com/SCDSB).<br><br>Thank you for your understanding.<br></p> | | | |

This reality is governed by the need to support our students with special needs, for students’ health or medical purposes and in learning settings where the use of technology is directed by an educator.</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;"></p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">The following resources from the Ministry of Education provide information and guidance to parents, guardians, educators and students about the new requirement: · Parents’ Guide to the Provincial Code of Conduct (updated) · Cellphones and Other Personal Mobile Devices in Schools – Questions and Answers for Parents and Guardians (new)</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;"></p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">We thank our parents/guardians for reviewing this information with your children.<br></p><p><br></p> | | | |
