Regarding bus cancellations, the board noted that schools are generally still open and that staff will be available to any student arriving at the school.
The board says there are no expectations for students to attend school when buses are canceled. It will not have a negative impact on your attendance record.
Information on school closings can be found in the TVDSB website, Twitter account or his Facebook page. You can find information on school bus cancellations through Southwest Ontario Student Transportation Services.
