NOVEMBER 17, 2020 -- Please click on the letter below to read an important message from the Saskatchewan Association of School Business Officials (SASBO), Saskatchewan School Boards Association (SSBA) and Saskatchewan League of Educational Administrators, Directors & Superintendents (LEADS), requesting that we all do our part to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. Regina Public Schools is an active member of each one of these Saskatchewan education sector organizations.

November 11, 2020 -- A positive case of COVID-19 has been identified at École Wascana Plains.

In consultation with Public Health, close-contacts will be identified and called directly. A close contact is someone who has been within two metres (six feet) of someone for a cumulative 15 minutes.

Close-contacts will have to isolate for 14 days. Families who are not called, are not close-contacts and do not have to self-isolate.

The school will be open for all other students on Wednesday, November 12, 2020. School families will receive more details then.

NOVEMBER 5, 2020 – Effective Monday, November 9, 2020, all Regina Public Schools students from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 12 will be required to wear a non-medical  mask in school and on school buses. This change comes at a time when all schools and the school division are working to focus on limiting health risks to students and staff and to minimize disruptions to student learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Please read the letter to all parents and guardians from Director of Education Greg Enion. It explains the background and the rationale for this decision.

We have also updated a number of documents to reflect this change. This is a great time to review these documents below.

Today’s School Zone Safety lesson is brought to you by the Letter “U”, and a recent increase in illegal U-Turns in Regina school zones.

1)    U cannot make a U-turn in a school zone.

2)    If U do, U are breaking a law: the Regina Traffic Bylaw.

3)    If U do, U could put nearby pedestrians and school children at risk. 

4)    U also risk getting into a collision that carries the possibility of injury/property damage to U or others.

5)    U could also get a ticket.

6)    If U get a ticket, U may have to pay hundreds of dollars, which means you have less $$ for things U really wanted to buy.

7)    Remember U are a role model to other drivers and school-age children, who will be parents and drivers someday.
