Both the Halton District School Board and the Halton Catholic District School Board trustees have approved their proposed 2020-2021 School Year Calendar. Since the time of this post - health and safety concerns surrounding the Coronavirus have caused the school boards to change their start dates.
At the July 9, 2020 Special Board meeting, Trustees of the Halton District School Board supported changes to the 2020-2021 School Year Calendar. The Ministry of Education requires all Ontario school boards to submit their 2020-2021 school year calendars by July 10, 2020 for final Ministry approval.
The proposed and approved School Calendars rarely change once they are approved by the boards. However, this year's calendar remains tentative as changes will likely come based on the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. Regular school schedules are likely to change as we get closer to Ontario's anticipated start of classes.
The 2020-2021 School Year Calendar is aligned between Halton District and the Halton Catholic calendar. This is to consolidate resources on school bus transportation, which is shared between the school boards.
Should regular classes resume in September, the proposed 2020-2021 School Year Calendar allows you to prepare for when your children will be off.
