As announced by Premier Jason Kenney on Thursday, stronger measures for targeted regions in the province that have high levels of active cases were set in place.
Lethbridge is one of those targeted regions with respect to education and operations of schools. Students in the Lethbridge School Division from Grade 7 to 12 will switch to at-home learning starting on Monday.
The situation will be re-evaluated by Alberta Health Services and Alberta Education as the two-week period comes to a close.
During a press conference on Friday, Lethbridge School Division Superintendent Cheryl Gilmore announced that May 3 will be used for preparation to move to full online delivery. Full delivery of online learning for those grades will start on Tuesday, May 4.
