Provincial Mask Requirements

All students in Grades 4-12, and all staff and visitors are required to wear non-medical masks in areas where two-metre physical distancing is not possible. Parents/Guardians will continue to choose whether students in Grades K-3 should wear a mask while at school. Masks are required on school buses for bus drivers, students, and any other passenger on the bus. Non-medical masks will be provided for students or staff who require one. Read Guidance for Mask Use in Schools.

On September 18, 2020, the province issued further guidance on mask-wearing limitations and school accommodations.
