Labour actions will affect student report cards, local school board confirms

Parents may notice a change in their kid's high school report cards in the Bluewater District School Board and other boards in the area.

BWDSB said on Monday that due to ongoing labour actions around the province involving Ontario Secondary School Teacher's Federation members, report cards will only include marks and no accompanying comments for each subject.

Developmental Learning DL report cards will be completed as usual and will continue to include comments. Other secondary school boards will have similar impacts on their respective report cards for students.
