Emergency Daycare Services
The government recently announced that exceptional measures must be taken in order to reduce the risks of spreading COVID-19. To that effect, it was decided that the number of class days on which students are physically present at school be reduced, starting on December 17. One of the planned measures involves the emergency daycare services to be provided.
The original school calendar is being maintained. For elementary school and high school students, online learning will be offered from December 17 to December 22. For high school students, online learning will also continue on January 7 and 8.
