Elementary school students are looking at more safety measures when they return back to school after the April break on April 19.
Durham District School Board Director of Education Norah Marsh told board trustees at its standing committee meeting Tuesday, April 6, that the ministry of education was eluding to introducing new safety protocols.
“The strategy will be directing us to do screening at the elementary level similar to what we do at the secondary level,” notes Marsh, adding students will be required to complete the online self-assessment screening process and submit the results daily before the start of the school day.

The Durham District School Board is calling on Durham Public Health to prioritize vaccinating teachers.
The board passed a motion at a special board meeting Monday night following the standing committee for correspondence to be sent to Durham Region Medical Officer of Health Dr. Robert Kyle and Durham Public Health “imploring them to prioritize the immunization of school staff and staff engaged in the direct transport of students.”
Whitby Trustee Nicki Lundquist brought the motion forward during committee due to the recent increase in COVID-19 cases in Durham schools.
