GUELPH, Ontario – The Upper Grand DSB is providing families the option to change between in-person and remote school modes of learning.

All families wishing to change their mode of learning must complete the Intent to Change Survey between October 14 and 21. The survey will be posted on the board website on October 14 at www.ugdsb.ca/survey

Only those wanting to change from their current placement are to fill out this survey. If a survey form is not completed by the deadline date of October 21 at 4pm, the student’s current learning mode status will remain.

Students in elementary school will have three options:

  1. Switch to Synchronous (aka real-time) Remote Learning for November 30.
  2. Switch to Asynchronous (aka not real-time) Remote Learning for November 30.
  3. Switch to In-Person School Learning for November 30.

Students in secondary school will have two options:

  1. Switch to Remote Learning for November 16.
  2. Switch to In-Person Learning at their home school for November 16.

The first day of classes for students in their new mode of learning will be November 16 for secondary students (the start of quadmester 2) and November 30 for elementary students.
