Messenger Post Media Canandaigua Daily Messenger CANANDAIGUA -- Canandaigua Academy students will shift to remote learning starting Friday and it will continue through Wednesday, Dec. 23, when students head off for winter break. The decision -- a day after Ontario County Public Health officials issued an urgent message to avoid social gatherings as COVID-19 cases continue to soar to record levels this month -- was made as a result of staffing issues primarily from quarantines, but also some COVID-positive cases specifically and recently at the Academy, according to Superintendent Jamie Farr. In-person learning at Canandaigua Primary-Elementary School and Canandaigua Middle School will continue.
