Dear Parents/Guardian Students:

 


 

As you are aware, all schools in New Brunswick have been
closed for two weeks, beginning March 16, 2020. As with every other school in
the province, CNBA is scheduled to reopen on March 30, 2020; however, this date
may change depending on the status of COVID- 19. I understand that the closure
of school brings uncertainty; however, we will work through this together and
all will be ok. I truly believe that decisions are being made in the best
interests of public health & safety.

 

As per the direction provided by the Superintendent of
Anglophone West School District (ASD-W), schools will only be accessible to
those responsible for cleaning. Until further notice, the following guidelines
will be adhered to:

 

·        
No one, other than custodians, is permitted to
enter the building.

 

·        
Student work/lessons are not being assigned at
this time.

 

·        
Co-operative Education 120 students are not to
attend their placements.

 

·        
Students taking distance education/online
courses can continue with their course at home.

 

As I receive information, I will do my best to get it to you
in a timely manner. As we move forward, please keep in mind that the purpose of
the school closure is to try to prevent further transmission of COVID-19
through self-isolation and social distancing. Public health experts are urging
everyone to be aggressive in their efforts to “flatten the curve”. Everyone
needs to take these actions seriously and stay safe”. Please take care of
yourself, keep informed and stay positive.
