Plans for After the Festive Break

​We have been approached by many people who wish to travel during the upcoming Festive Break but are concerned about the time required for quarantines, possibly on both ends of their journey. We want to be as supportive as we can of those who have not seen their families in a long time while also supporting those who may not travel. As a result, we are planning to reopen with distance learning for a short time after Festive Break to support those who will need to quarantine. We believe that allowing for adequate quarantine is in the best interests of health and safety for the entire community.
 
To that end, we will offer distance learning ONLY (Learning Paths 2 and 3) from 19-22 January. There will be no on-campus classes nor activities for students for these four days. Then from 25-29 January, we will reopen all Learning Paths (1, 2, & 3). Students who are still quarantining will be able to continue with distance learning during this second week after the holiday. After 29 January, only Learning Paths 1 & 3 will be available.
 
Although it’s still a compromise, I hope that this modified schedule helps to meet the needs of as many people as possible in the community. I recognize that this plan may not be perfect for everyone but humbly request that you continue being patient and flexible as we try to plan during these unprecedented and unpredictable times.
