OLPH Parent Survey - Please complete
(thank you to those who have already completed this...we have had great participation so far!)

Dear OLPH Families,

As many of you know, OLPH School has been working tirelessly adhering to all the health and safety measures with regards to a safe reopening of schools next month. We have created our learning groups, staggered our arrival and pick up times and begun the final touches for our reopening on Wednesday, Sept. 9th.

On Wednesday, August 26th, Minister Rob Fleming updated the province regarding our return to the classrooms in September. After discussions with the Independent School Authorities, we are providing a quick survey to our families to establish how we can best support each family to a safe return to school. For the vast majority of our families, they will be committing to a full return to school and we will be adding more communications and uploading a video tour of OLPH School so parents and students can become familiar with how our new school looks and feels. Be sure to watch for this on our YouTube channel and subscribe to ensure you don't miss it! We also recognize that some may still be apprehensive to a return and want to assist with the transition.

What OLPH is tasked to do is to offer a temporary solution for those families who are needing a transition period before committing to full in class instruction. To that end, each classroom teacher will be supplied with a dedicated laptop that will host a Zoom room for students of these families to virtually participate in the classroom. Interactions with the teacher will, of course, be limited, but can serve as a temporary solution during this transition. OLPH School will support this transition period of instruction until the end of the day on Wednesday September 30th.

The intimate details of this will be sent out directly to those relevant families based on the survey.

This survey will be open until Tuesday, September 8th at 4:00 pm.
