Health and Safety Information

Following the latest guidance from the Ministry of Education, there are no COVID-related restrictions in effect at Grand Erie schools. Staff and students are no longer required to complete the COVID-19 screening self-assessment prior to attending school or work; however, anyone who exhibits COVID-19 symptoms (see the Ontario self-assessment tool for a list), or symptoms of any other illness, should not come to school, but remain at home until well.

Students, staff or visitors who choose to wear a mask are welcome to do so. Hand sanitizer is available at all schools, and masks and rapid antigen tests are also available, free of cost, for students and staff. Anyone who has travelled internationally must still follow Government of Canada guidelines for travellers.

Grand Erie is following all Ministry guidelines with respect to ventilation in schools. The publicly available ventilation report by school is available on our website.
