High school students across New Brunswick will return to full-time in-person learning on April 12.
The provincial government announced updates to the Return to School plan earlier today.
Education and Early Childhood Development Minister Dominic Cardy says, “We have always acknowledged that the situation, particularly for high school students, is not ideal. These changes mean all students in Grades 9 through 12 will be learning in the classroom every day in the Yellow and Orange Public Health levels.”
Beginning today, all high school staff are eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine and will be receiving an invitation today to participate in vaccination clinics next week organized by the regional health authorities. Additional vaccination clinics will be available for staff in elementary and middle schools and for early childhood service providers and child care staff.
High school students who are 16 and older with complex medical conditions are also eligible to receive the vaccine.
More to come…
