Guelph public school board students can switch between in-person, remote learning

Guelph’s public school board says it is providing students with the option to change between in-person and remote learning, starting this week.

All families in the Upper Grand District School Board wanting to make the change must complete an online form by Oct. 21.

Beginning Wednesday, the form can be found on Upper Grand’s website.

Only those wanting to make the change from their current model are to fill out the form. If one is not filled out by Oct. 21 at 4 p.m., the student’s current learning mode status will remain as it is.
