COVID-19 response
Grade 12 diploma exams are cancelled in June 2020. Under special circumstances, students can request to write a diploma exam. Students wishing to do so should speak to their teacher and school administrator.
Students are no longer attending classes for the 2019-20 school year. At home learning continues for students. We are working with school jurisdictions across the province on a re-entry plan for the 2020-21 school year. Further details will be shared as soon as they are available.
