Students were originally scheduled to return to in-class studies on April 26.
“We would have preferred to have students return to their school desks to resume in-class learning,” says Greg Enion, director of education for Regina Public Schools, in a press release.
“We have been informed that returning to schools now would not be the safest course and that it would not benefit our city’s effort to reduce our COVID-19 caseloads. Remote learning is not ideal, we are confident that many of our students are continuing their learning. We are also working to keep parents informed with enough notice so they can make plans for their families,” said Enion.
