I hope this email finds you well. In the past week, you received information from the Department of Education on return to school for the 2020-2021 school year. I am sure that you have many questions and/or concerns, which I trust will be addressed as information is released over the coming weeks. At the present time, I am working on an Operational Plan for school opening in September. This plan, once approved by ASD-W, will be released to you. However, the Return to School Guide for parents that was emailed to you last Thursday gives you an idea of what to expect when school commences. This email will be the first of many means of communication to you as we prepare to safely and carefully have staff and students return to school. As always, I ask for your patience and understanding as I strive to keep you as informed as I can in a timely manner.  

For now, I can provide you with the following bus schedule from the Anglophone West School District for CNBA.

Bus Arrival Time: 8:05 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. Note: This is roughly about the same time span for bus arrivals as last year.

School Begins: 8:20 a.m. Instructional time begins; with classes beginning at 8:30 a.m.

School Ends: 3:00 p.m. Note: This is approximately 5 to 10 minutes earlier than last year. 

Bus Departure: 3:00 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. Note: This is approximately 5 to 10 minutes earlier than last year. 

With little change in student drop-off and arrival times, drivers should be picking up and dropping off students at approximately the same time as last year. Should you require information regarding your child(ren)'s pick-up/drop-off time for busing, please contact ASD-W Transportation at 357-4252. 

Stay Well & Keep Safe. I look forward to working with you to ensure a safe and healthy return to school for your child/children and school staff. Please contact me if you have any questions.
