Cape Breton school dates

The first day of school is going to be a little later that Education Minister Karen Casey wanted. The Minister wanted classes to begin September 6th, but schools boards across the province have said no.

They are delaying the start by a day or two to give teachers time for training and to prepare.

Students at Strait Regional School Board will start classes Sept. 7. Cape Breton-Victoria Regional School Board will have the first day of classes September 8th.
