NCDSB to Close All Schools During OECTA Strike

The Niagara Catholic District School Board will be closing all of it's schools for one-day, if the teachers union goes on strike.

Members of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association will walk off the job for one-day on Tuesday January 21st, if there is no agreement with the province beforehand.

NCDSB says parents should have a plan in place for child care, just in case.

The OECTA also started a work-to-rule campaign yesterday.

It targets administrative duties; including report card comments and standardized testing.

This means the NCDSB students will take the EQAO Grade 9 Mathematics assessment in June, instead of January.
