The Good Spirit School Division released its return-to-school plan for the 2021-22 school year.
Earlier this month, the School Division released a “very preliminary” plan to give students and parents an idea of what to expect for this academic year.
Indoor mask use will be required for students in Kindergarten to Grade 6 and all staff who work with these students, while students in Grade 7 to 12 and staff who are around these students are encouraged to wear a mask.
For any student who cannot wear a mask due to a medical issue, the family will need to obtain medical documentation and work with the school on creating an accommodation plan.
Masks need to be worn when boarding GSSD school buses, except for students with an approved medical accommodation, and assigned seating on buses will continue.
All visitors need to wear a mask and are asked to report to the office to sign in.
Extra-curricular activities will resume, and sanitization and hand hygiene will be promoted and practiced.
A protocol is in place where if a student becomes ill while in school, they will go to a separate area until a parent or guardian are contacted to pick up the student. After the student has left the building, the space where the student was will be disinfected.
