On Wednesday the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation (STF) called for the Government of Saskatchewan to move all schools to Level 4 (online) learning for a two-week period following the Easter Break, which began Friday.
Level 4 means all schools would transition to online, mandatory learning from Monday, April 12 through Friday, April 23.
“There is a steady increase of COVID-19 cases in schools across the province,” STF President Patrick Maze said in a release.
“This two-week period will serve as a buffer to help protect students, teachers and ultimately our communities in the event people travel or gather over the break.”
