| Standards of behaviour and consequences for student action related to racism, bias or hate | http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/689 | Standards of behaviour and consequences for student action related to racism, bias or hate | <p>At the SCDSB, we are committed to maintaining safe, inviting and supportive school environments, and recognize that all students have the right to be safe, and feel safe, in our schools. With this right comes the responsibility to contribute to a positive school climate. <br>We want you to know that any incident of racism, bias or hate will not be tolerated. Any such incident is treated very seriously with immediate action and consequences in accordance with the requirements of the Education Act, and consistent with our values and obligations under the Ontario Human Rights Code. <br>Students who engage in acts of racism, bias or hate will face severe consequences as a result of their actions. Please take a moment to review the SCDSB Code of Conduct with your child(ren). The Code of Conduct sets clear standards of behaviour and specifies consequences for student actions that do not comply with these standards. <br>We are dedicated to educating our students and staff about the injustice and impact of systemic racism. We continue to work with students, staff, parents/guardians and community partners to ensure that our schools are the safe places they are intended to be for all students. </p> | | | |

| Considerations prior to travelling this winter | http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/686 | Considerations prior to travelling this winter | <p>1. Learn about travel advisories related to COVID-19 where you are headed, before leaving -https://bit.ly/3Czlk5I<br>2. Be sure you understand how the Quarantine Act applies to travelers arriving back in Canada -https://bit.ly/3HAlOft</p><p>Students who have travelled outside of Canada must self-isolate for 14 days if they do not qualify for a federal quarantine travel exemption. Your child’s ability to return to school after travel outside of Canada will depend on whether or not they are fully vaccinated. If they are fully vaccinated, they may be exempt from federal quarantine. If they are not fully vaccinated, they are not to attend school/child care for 14 days, even if they traveled with a vaccinated companion. <br>A reminder that all students must complete the COVID-19 Screening Tool before going to school each day. This includes questions related to travel and guidance for those who have travelled. More information can be found on the Government of Canada website: https://bit.ly/3ctaLqa. <br></p> | | | |
