Winter break extended for Alberta schools

Students in kindergarten to grade twelve in Alberta will have their winter break extended until January 10th as omicron cases rise across the province. There is no word yet on whether school will resume with in-person or online classes, but the province has promised a supply of rapid tests and medical-grade masks for staff and students. January diploma exams have been cancelled, with no word yet on the fate of spring diploma exams. Produced by Hannah Cunningham.
