Schools in Toronto are planning to re-open for in-person learning on February 16^th, 2021. Toronto Public Health (TPH) has important reminders as you prepare to return to school.How to prepare for return to in-person learning:

• Daily screening

Starting today for everyone in your household complete the updated COVID-19 symptom screening for students and adults every day.

• Get tested

If anyone in your household has one or more new or worsening symptoms of COVID-19, they should get tested as soon as possible. More pop-up testing sites will be made available this week through our testing partners.

• Stay-at-home except to attend work

Continue to support stay-at-home measures in order to reduce community transmission. Lower transmission in the community will help to keep schools as safe as possible. Stay at home except for work, essential shopping, outdoor exercise or healthcare appointments. Limit contact outside of work to only the people you live with.
