Statement

April 7, 2021

“The Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association acknowledges the progress made today to extend eligibility for vaccinations to Special Education workers province-wide and all education workers in select hot spot areas. There remains, however, an urgency to place priority on vaccinating teachers and all education workers throughout the province given next week’s provincial school break.

The dedicated teachers and education workers in Catholic schools continue to work diligently to meet the needs of students and families while supporting the continuity of learning throughout this pandemic. A mandate for the urgent vaccination of all teachers and education workers is called for at this time.”
