The Ministry of Education announced that as of Jan. 4, all elementary and secondary students will be temporarily shifting to virtual, remote learning.
While the switch isn’t an issue for students living in urban areas, its potentially jeopardizing the quality of education received in households with poor internet connections in the Upper Grand District School Board.
Abbey Spencer, a Grade 11 student at Orangeville District Secondary School (ODSS) says she’s been having technical and educational issues with online learning. Living in Mono, she doesn’t have access to high-speed internet, so her mom reached out to the school to obtain textbooks and worksheets in case she can’t login to live learning with the rest of her class.
