Dear Parents/Guardians:
All schools in the Near North District School Board, with the exception of MacTier Public School will re-open on Monday, January 11, 2021, for in-person learning.
MacTier Public School will continue remote learning until Jan. 25 because it is located in the Muskoka Simcoe District Health Unit region.
As previously indicated, staff or students that live outside of our Health Unit district are able to return to their school in the North Bay Parry Sound Health Unit region when we resume in-person learning on January 11, 2021. Transportation will be provided to students who live in other health unit regions to attend schools in the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit region.
Please see the attached communication from Medical Officer of Health James Chirico for the North Bay Parry Sound Health Unit.
If you have any questions regarding your child(ren)’s learning, please reach out to their principal. They are best suited to address any questions that you may have.
Also, please monitor the board’s website nearnorthschools.ca for updates and follow our Facebook and Twitter accounts. We will continue to share accurate and timely information, Ministry correspondence, and resources with you as they become available.
Additional resource material, including learning, mental health, and supports, can also be found on our website’s menu sections. The Province’s news release can be found here.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding during this time.
Sincerely,
Craig Myles
Director of Education
