Dear families,
各位尊敬的家长,您好!
We have received notice from the Premier and Minister of Education that the current closure of all Ontario schools will be extended until the end of this school year, as part of the ongoing effort to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. All schools in York Region District School Board will continue to be closed for the rest of the school year.
约克公立教育局已经收到安大略省省长和省教育厅厅长的最新通知,为了继续防止新冠病毒(COVID-19)大流行的蔓延,目前安大略省所有学校的停课时间将延长至本学年末。在本学年的剩余时间,即6月底之前,约克公立教育局的所有学校将继续关闭。
It is critically important at this time to continue to follow the direction of public health to practise social distancing to flatten the curve of this pandemic virus. Please note that, in accordance with the Provincial Emergency Declaration, school grounds remain closed and inaccessible to the public, which includes playgrounds and school yards.
在目前这个非常时期,最重要的就是我们继续遵循公共卫生部门所指示的保持社交距离,以拉平新冠病毒的传播曲线。请注意,根据《安省紧急通知(Provincial Emergency Declaration)》的规定,所有学校校园仍然封闭,公众不能进入学校操场和校园活动场。
Items in the Schools
学生留在学校的个人物品
The provincial emergency order requires that schools be closed to students, however we know families will have questions about picking up items left at school. We are working with public health on a safe process for families to pick up these items. As soon as we have information, we will share this with families.
安大略省紧急状况通知要求所有学校对学生保持关闭。我们知道,有些家长希望取回学生留在学校的个人物品。目前,教育局正在与政府公共卫生部门通力合作,将会制定一个相关的保障家长安全的前提下取回学生个人物品的计划。一旦确认,我们将会第一时间通知大家。
Online Learning
在线学习
We will continue to support your child’s education through online teacher-led learning, and I thank you for your patience as we have been implementing new ways of teaching and learning on this scale. If you have any questions about your child’s online learning, we encourage you to reach out to your child’s teacher. While our schools may be closed, we remain dedicated to supporting your child’s learning and well-being.
我们将继续通过教师指导的在线学习方式来支持您孩子的学业。我们也感谢您对这种新型在线教学/学习方式的耐心和配合。如果您对孩子的在线学习有任何疑问,建议您与孩子的老师联系沟通。虽然学校关闭了,但是教育局的全体教职员工仍致力于全力支持您孩子的学习和健康成长。
We also continue to prioritize the mental health and well-being of our students and families, and have supports and resources available. Please speak with your child’s teacher, principal or visit our website www.yrdsb.ca/covid19 for more information.
如何支持在学校关闭期间学生和家人的心理健康是教育局的重中之重。教育局可以向您提供很多相关的专业支持服务和信息资源。如有需要,家长可以与孩子的教师、校长沟通,也可以访问教育局官网 www.yrdsb.ca/covid19 了解更多信息。
I’m sure you have a lot of questions and concerns about what these closures mean for your child’s education. The Minister of Education continues to reassure Ontarians that school closures will not affect students’ ability to graduate and that Ontario students will not lose this school year. As the Premier mentioned today and we had previously communicated, students will receive an end-of-year report card. More details will follow as we receive them.
我们知道您对学校的延迟开放一定有很多疑问和担忧。安省教育厅厅长继续向民众保证,学校关闭不会影响任何学生的正常毕业,所有学生都会按时获得本学年的成绩。安大略省省长今天特别提到,约克公立教育局之前也通知过大家,所有学生都将会收到本学年的期末成绩单。当教育局收到更多确认信息后会第一时间告诉学生和家长。
Summer Learning Programs
暑期学习项目
The Premier and Minister of Education also announced enhanced summer learning opportunities. At this time, we don’t have additional information on the implementation of this announcement. We will send more details as soon as we are able. Current information and opportunities are available on the Board website.
安省省长和教育厅厅长也宣布了增加学生暑期学习机会的通知。目前,教育局还没有收到关于该安省暑期学习项目如何进行的具体信息。一旦我们有进一步消息,教育局会第一时间通知大家。此外,您也可以从约克公立教育局暑期学习项目的官网页面了解教育局自己设立的暑期学习相关信息。
Graduations and Celebrations
毕业庆典
I know many students are also concerned about the postponement or cancellation of graduations and other important milestone events. Due to the school closures, we previously made the difficult decision to cancel end-of-year celebrations such as proms and semi-formals. In addition, we are regrettably postponing June graduations with a goal to reschedule for the fall of 2020. More information will be made available as soon as logistics are finalized, including information on how graduates may obtain a copy of their diploma.
我知道学生们非常担心毕业典礼等重要活动会被延迟或取消。由于学校的关闭,教育局之前作出了很艰难的决定:取消本学年末的一些庆祝活动,例如毕业舞会等。另外,我们也很遗憾地通知大家,原计划在六月份举行的毕业典礼将推迟至2020年秋季举行。其他相关细节,例如应届毕业生如何获得毕业证书等,教育局一旦确认所有细节,将会在第一时间通知大家。
