Learning Resources and Supports for Students and Parents
The following supports are provided to support students with at home learning. However, the school staff recognize that not all students have equal access to at home internet and laptops or electronic learning devices. At this time students will not be penalized if they do not have the means to engage in learning on-line.
The information provided is to assist and support those who currently have access to the necessary supports for learning on line. We will be exploring further on-line service delivery methods over the next several weeks.
In addition, please feel free to explore the web pages provided by the Ontario Department of Education.
