Regina Public Schools (RPS) said pre-K to Grade 8 are returning to regular class on May 3. Students in grades 9 to 12 will be alternate days in person.
Regina Catholic Schools (RCS) said elementary students and the majority of high schools will return to class with face-to-face education, with masks.
Both organizations said the decision to return to in-person classes came after extensive consultation and the endorsement of public heath officials.
Neither school board said they had a specific metric guiding their decision, but RPS said it had information that "indicate[s] a distinct reduction in [cases among] school aged students."
"[We] continue to have conversations regularly with the [medical health officers] in Regina. We are education experts relying on the expertise of medical experts to make these decisions," said Twylla West, a spokesperson for RCS.
