It's hard to keep on top of the news cycle these days, and now that spring break is drawing to an end parents & students have a lot of questions about what school will look like over the next weeks and months. Here are some key places to find updates on what's happening.
The primary source of information from the provincial government is the Safe & Healthy Schools website. Go here for official information applying to education in the entire province, plus links to COVID-19 health information. They also have an FAQ page which is regularly updated. The Vancouver School Board has a page devoted to COVID-19 updates. Superintendent Suzanne Hoffman is also providing updates - the latest one addresses what to expect next week, and can be found here. If you're a Twitter user, please follow Vancouver DPAC (@VanDPAC) and BCCPAC (@BCCPAC). Both are sharing really useful information and links for parents and students to navigate this new reality. BCCPAC is also consolidating information and links on their website. And finally, especially for Tupper's Grade 12 students & parents - Grade 12 counsellor Ms Higenbottam is on Instagram and posts lots of great information for graduating students. At the moment she's sharing some good resources on managing anxiety around this whole situation. Your students may already know about this (and hopefully are following her!) but her posts are worth checking out for parents as well. Stay safe, Tupper family - and hopefully see you soon.
