Ontario Launches New COVID-19 Screening Tool

Wednesday, September 16, 2020

The Ontario government has a new, voluntary, interactive screening tool to assist parents, students and staff with the daily assessment of COVID-19 symptoms and risk factors that is required before attending school.

The results will let parents, students, and education staff know whether they should attend school each day or guide at-risk individuals to proper resources. This tool is another layer of prevention that the province is using to protect the health and safety of students, staff, and the communities where they live and work.

You can read more about this new screening tool on the Ontario.ca website.
