Coronavirus: Okanagan school districts grade back-to-school success
Description
October 6, 2020
It's been one month since kids returned to school in the midst of a global pandemic that has claimed the lives of almost ten thousand Canadians.
Currently according the the BC Centre for Disease Control there are no reported exposures of COVID-19 in any of the Okanagan school districts.
That has school officials up and down the valley saying that the return to class has actually gone fairly well.
