“We’re only at the beginning of September and it is going to get much more challenging as the number of cases rise.”
This is exactly why @fordnation and @Sflecce need to step up and properly fund a plan that puts #onted's safety first.

“Ontario will do doing everything possible to keep kids in class throughout the school year." -@Sflecce
So then where are the smaller class sizes? Improved ventilation with provincial standards? Mandatory vaccination in schools? Tracing and testing? 🤔

Schools don't need “force fields” for safety. We need the govt to implement measures recommended by health experts like reduced class sizes, enhanced ventilation, & increased testing. #onted is still waiting for the "robust layers of protection" @Sflecce promised months ago.

Happy #NationalCustodianDay! Thank you to all of the amazing caretakers, custodial, and maintenance staff for your commitment to ensuring the health and safety of students, teachers, and education staff in all #onted schools.
The science is clear: without smaller class sizes, physical distancing is impossible. Hold the Ford gov't accountable for the safe reopening of #onted schools.
