Superintendent’s Update
January 4, 2022
Dear Parents/Caregivers,
As a proactive measure, the Manitoba government is shifting to a one-week remote learning period for most Manitoba students after the holiday break to ensure schools can implement enhanced measures for in-person learning. This new measure was announced today by Premier Heather Stefanson and Education Minister Cliff Cullen. View News Release.
Effective Jan. 10, 2022, a phased-in approach will be applied to allow Kindergarten to Grade 6 children of critical service workers and students with special learning needs in Kindergarten to Grade 12 to attend school if no alternate care arrangements are available. Current plans are to have all other students return to in-person learning on Jan. 17.
Additional details will be communicated to families as soon as possible this week. We understand the need for timely information to allow families to plan for care arrangements. Please note that school offices will reopen on Thursday, Jan. 6.
Respectfully,
Shelley Amos, Interim Superintendent/CEO
Hanover School Division
