As part of enhanced safety measures for the return to in-person learning after the Winter Break, the Ministry of Education has directed school boards to verify the daily screening of all students, staff and essential visitors for the first two weeks of in-person school in January 2022 (January 17 to 28).

Screening Verification for Secondary Students

Similar to the start of the school year, students will use an online portal with their PAL login to confirm they have completed screening for COVID-19 daily. Buttons, like the one found below, can be found on secondary school websites to help students and families quickly access this tool.

Schools will develop protocols to respond to students that have not completed the verification.

Paper copies of the WRDSB Student Screening Confirmation Form will be available, should students, staff or essential visitors require them.

If you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, please stay home.
