Bus cancellation days
This school year, when buses are cancelled for part or all of Peel
region, school buildings will also be closed to all students in affected
municipalities. Please do not send your child to school on these days.
Instead, students will learn at home through live, online classes, where
possible. Students already enrolled in online learning will continue with their
regular school routines. Contact your child's educator and/or principal for
more information.
When buses are cancelled, child care programs will remain open. Contact your
child care provider for details.
Full board closure days
In the very rare
instance that it is unsafe to open schools due to severe inclement weather, we
will announce that school buildings and board offices are closed to all
students and staff for the day.
On these days, students who would typically attend school in person will learn
at home through live, online classes, where possible. Students already enrolled
in the online learning will continue with their regular school routines.
All in-person activities at board offices and schools, including child care,
will be cancelled.
Communication to
families
During inclement
weather days, the decision to close schools or cancel buses will be shared by
6:15 a.m. If no closures or cancellations have been announced by 6:15 a.m.,
buses are running and schools are open.
