Alberta Suspends In-School Learning From December 18 to January 8

Premier Jason Kenney moved Alberta to a state of public health emergency on November 24th and is bringing in tougher COVID-19 restrictions that include limits on social gatherings and less face-to-face class time for students.

Alberta students in Grades 7 through 12 will transition at-home learning on Nov. 30, ending in-person classes early. In-person classes will resume on Jan. 11.

Students in early childhood services and Grades K-6 will remain learning in-person until Dec. 18.

Alberta is also making Diploma exams optional for the rest of the school year. Students and their families can choose whether to write the exam or receive an exemption for the April, June, and August 2021 exam sessions.
