School Year Calendars 2018-2019 YORK REGION DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD SCHOOL YEAR CALENDARS 2018-2019 Background Ontario Regulation 304, School Year Calendar, Professional Activity Days, requires the Board to prepare, adopt and submit to the Ministry of Education, a proposed school year calendar for the schools under its jurisdiction. The regulation indicates the conditions governing the structure of the school year. The major conditions are as follows: minimum number of schools days 194 minimum number of instructional days 187 maximum number of Professional Activity days 7 maximum number of examination days 10 Christmas Vacation – two (2) complete weeks including Christmas Day and New Year’s Day Mid-Winter Break – five (5) consecutive days commencing on the Monday next following the Friday preceding the 14th day of March Rationale The proposed school year calendar is similar to the calendar being considered by York Catholic District School Board. Consultation has occurred with Community and International Education Services, York Region - Ontario Principals’ Council, Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario and Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation, and they have provided input. Other Greater Toronto Area (GTA) boards will continue to have variation in the scheduling of Professional Activity (PA) Days, examination days and selected holidays to meet their local needs. For the 2018-19 year, we are able to accommodate for the Municipal Election on October 22, 2018 with one of the Board-directed Professional Activity days in most schools. Keswick High School, Markville Secondary School, Maple High School and Sutton District High School propose a modified school year that begins Monday, August 27, 2018 with a mid-term break the week of Monday, October 29 – Friday, November 2, 2018. All other aspects of their calendar are the same as the system calendar. Bill Crothers Secondary School will also follow a modified school year. Bill Crothers Secondary School starts Tuesday, August 7, 2018 and will have Thursday, August 30, 2018, Friday, August 31, 2018, Friday, October 5, 2018, Monday, October 29 to Friday, November 2, 2018, Friday, December 7, 2018, and Monday, April 8, 2019 to Friday, April 12, 2019 as holidays. 1 Relationship to Board Priorities: This report supports the stewardship of Board Resources by demonstrating professionalism and accountability of high standards of practice in all board operations. Timeline: Immediate – Ministry Regulations require submission of modified school year calendars by March 1, 2018. As per past practice, all calendars will be submitted by this date. Recommendations That the York Region District School Board approve the following recommendations regarding the 2018-2019 School Year Calendar. 1.

  • Nancy Naylor Deputy Minister Subject
    Memorandum to: Directors of Education Secretary/Treasurers of School Authorities From: Nancy Naylor Deputy Minister Subject: COVID-19: School Testing Pilot Program Building off information shared in the Ministry of Education’s August 3rd memo, COVID- 19: Health, Safety and Operational Guidance for Schools 2021-22, we are writing with an update on a pilot program for COVID-19 testing initiatives that are being offered on a targeted basis to Ontario secondary schools. Overview: School Testing Plan The government’s testing strategy in schools is grounded in guidance from the Office of the Chief Medical Officer of Health and supports close collaboration between local public health units, schools, and Ontario Health. When an individual is identified as needing testing under provincial guidance, where possible, they will be offered a testing approach that is as minimally invasive as possible (e.g. nasal, mouth and saliva testing). School Boards should be working with their local Public Health Units to ensure all students know where local testing options exist. When tests are needed, they will be made quickly accessible through multiple approaches (e.g. assessment centres and community testing sites), with a focus on reducing barriers to access and recognizing the unique needs of certain communities and geographies. Operationalizing the school testing plan could include deployment of mobile vendors to school sites and making take-home self-collection kits available in certain schools. School Testing Strategy: Pilot Initiative for Targeted Ontario Schools Starting in September, as part of the overall school testing strategy in schools, the Ministry of Education (EDU)—in close partnership with Ontario Health, Ministry of Health and Ministry of Government and Consumer Services—will initiate a pilot program in targeted secondary schools.

The regulation indicates the conditions governing the structure of the school year. The major conditions are as follows: minimum number of schools days 194 minimum number of instructional days 187 maximum number of Professional Activity days 7 maximum number of examination days 10 Christmas Vacation – two (2) complete weeks including Christmas Day and New Year’s Day Mid-Winter Break – five (5) consecutive days commencing on the Monday next following the Friday preceding the 14th day of March Rationale The proposed school year calendar is similar to the calendar being considered by York Catholic District School Board. Consultation has occurred with Community and International Education Services, York Region - Ontario Principals’ Council, Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario and Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation, and they have provided input. Other Greater Toronto Area (GTA) boards will continue to have variation in the scheduling of Professional Activity (PA) Days, examination days and selected holidays to meet their local needs. For the 2018-19 year, we are able to accommodate for the Municipal Election on October 22, 2018 with one of the Board-directed Professional Activity days in most schools. Keswick High School, Markville Secondary School, Maple High School and Sutton District High School propose a modified school year that begins Monday, August 27, 2018 with a mid-term break the week of Monday, October 29 – Friday, November 2, 2018.
