Alberta Education Minister Adriana LaGrange will announce the fall re-entry plan for schools at a 3:30 p.m. press conference this afternoon.
Schools have been closed since March 16 and students have been accessing education online from home.
In mid-May, Alberta Education said that no decisions had been made yet about how education will be provided in September.
The province was looking at three scenarios: normal school operations; partially reopening schools with some restrictions; and continuing at-home learning.
