In a note sent to parents Friday afternoon, the leadership of Jules Verne School in Vancouver asked parents to check their emails this weekend. Management there said the transition to online tutoring was possible, depending on the evolution of the number of patients.
Parents on Thursday demanded more information and transparency on the number of COVID-19 cases within the establishment.
Management confirmed in the note that since the beginning of the week, some students and staff have been absent due to illness, and the school is in contact with the Conseil scolaire francophone (CSF).
So far, the absenteeism rates of our sick students have not reached the reporting levels established by [la régie de santé Vancouver Coastal] and do not justify the adjustment of sanitary measures in place gives direction to the note.
But the decision was taken, as a precaution, to allow student of 7at -8at -9at bring their laptop home for the weekend .
