Norfolk County is getting its own school calendar next year that is different than Brant, Brantford, and Haldimand.
The change at the Grand Erie District School Board stems from Young Canada Day.
In the report presented to trustees, it says that “Concerns have arisen about aligning the entire Board with a Norfolk County activity.”
Typically, PA days happen on a Monday or Friday but in October all the schools within the GEDSB were required to take it on a Tuesday.
To coincide with this, Norfolk County schools will have October 6th as their PA day this year while all schools outside of Norfolk will have the 9th off.
Everything else on the calendar outside of these two dates will remain the same.
Ministry approval will be needed before the calendars can be confirmed for the upcoming school year.
