BURLINGTON, ON
The Halton District School Board is adding an Professional Activity Day to the school calendar – Friday, April 8, 2016 is the day you will have to find something else for the kids to do.
The additional day is part of the negotiated terms bargained between the Ministry of Education and the federations representing Ontario teachers.
Schools will be closed to students and there will be no classes on Friday, April 8, 2016. This date has been added to the School Year Calendar posted on the Board’s website.
The Easter holiday is at the end of March.
Well I do hope that they will be afforded more “preparation time” given the fact that they will now have 1 less day to cover the curriculum.
Good Grief….would like to know exactly what they do on these days…my cousins wife seems to spend them shopping.
