Windsor - Feb. 18, 2020: As a result of the planned job action by the Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association (OECTA), all WECDSB schools will be closed to students on Friday, Feb. 28, 2020 unless an agreement between OECTA and the provincial government can be reached.

As previously announced all schools will also be closed to students on Friday, Feb. 21 due to a planned job action by OECTA.

Parents and guardians of children in any of the day care services that operate in WECDSB schools should check with their individual operators to determine whether those facilities will remain open on Feb. 21 and on Feb. 28.

We are encouraged by the fact that a mediator has recalled all parties back to the provincial negotiating table. We would ask for continued patience as the collective bargaining process unfolds and we hope that a resolution that satisfies the needs of all parties can be found soon.

Sincerely,

Terry Lyons
Director of Education
