SD 52 releases individual school Restart plans

The path ahead for education on the North Coast was revealed on Wednesday, as SD52 released the details of the individual Restart plans for each of the Districts Schools.

The documents which you can access here from the SD52 website, or from each individual school's website, outline the schedules that students will follow and the measures that have been put in place towards addressing the COVID-19 situation for each school.

As they review the information, Parents will find detailed back to school plans on their district website. 

In addition to health and safety measures, the plans include: how learning groups will be organized; when masks are required; daily schedules for classes, lunch and recess; daily health assessment requirements; pick-up and drop off times; protocols for common areas; hand washing directions; and orientation information. 




The local restart plans were released on the same day that Education Minister Rob Fleming provided an update on the provincial plans towards the September restart of school.

“There is no better place than in-class learning. With these plans now in place, parents can feel confident about sending their children back to school and assured that strict health and safety measures are in place to protect students and staff. I know that some families will continue to have medical or health concerns, and my expectation is that school districts will be flexible and work with families to provide remote options that keep children connected to their school community.” -- Education Minister Rob Fleming

The full review of yesterday's announcement of the provincial program can be examined here.

Earlier this week, SD52 Superintendent Andrew Samoil provided his own  update on the preparations at the Prince Rupert School District, you can review those notes and view his video presentation here.
