Dear Parents / Guardians:
I am writing this letter as a follow-up and general reminder to all families that schools, centres and
daycare services will be closed on Monday, April 8th. This decision was taken to minimize the risks to
student safety associated with the solar eclipse that will take place that afternoon.
Included below, you will find information from the Government of Quebec on the potential damage to
the eye if exposed to a solar eclipse without adequate protection. We have included information
below on various ways the solar eclipse can safely be experienced.
