I hope your weekend is going well.
Alberta Education sent us a document last night titled “Alberta Guidance for Schools and Child Care Programs: 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).” As well, Darren Forrester, Sean Maxwell (chair of the Board) and I attended a telephone meeting for schools this morning with Adriana LaGrange, Minister of Education; Andre Corbould, Deputy of Minister of Education; and Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Chief Medical Officer of Health for Alberta.
Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Chief Medical Officer of Health for Alberta, affirmed her recommendation that schools in Alberta remain open. Dr. Hinshaw has been in communication with Health Services in the other provinces and is very knowledgeable and up-to-date on all of the current information and recommendations from the World Health Organization. Her skills, experience, knowledge and sound thinking instills a high level of confidence in her work with this most challenging situation.
The following is
