Security and Campus Access
The reduction of population density is key to promoting health and safety on our campus. As a result, to start the year, we will strictly limit campus access to students and faculty/staff. At drop-off and pick-up times, one exception will be allowed: one caretaker to accompany our youngest students enrolled in Grade 2 or below (to the thermal camera only, after which they must leave campus immediately).
