Schools Closed for Remainder of School Year
 Ontario schools will be closed for the rest of the school year in an effort to keep Ontario’s students safe from the coronavirus. The link provided above will let students and their parents access educational
resources to help keep students learning and engaged during school
closures.
I've been off work for a while this year, and fortunately I've had wonderful and dedicated teachers filling in for me. These times are trying for all of us, and I've made all of my materials available online for parents and students to access from home. I hope you find them helpful.
