Upper Grand students can switch their learning mode

Families with children attending Upper Grand District schools will get a chance to change their student's mode of learning.

The board has launched an Intent to Change Survey on its website.

The choices for elementary students are real-time remote learning, remote learning not in real-time, or in-person learning.

Elementary students would make the switch on November 30. Secondary students can choose in-person or remote learning that would start on November 16.

Only those wanting to change from their current placement are to fill out the survey.

The deadline to fill out the form is October 21, and if it is not completed by then, students will remain in their current learning situation.
