International field trips cancelled until the end of April

Wed, 4 Mar, 2020

Edmonton Public Schools has cancelled all international field trips until the end of April. This cancellation will impact 23 field trips from 19 schools that were scheduled over spring break and into April. Trips were scheduled to Europe and the United States. Edmonton Public Schools had previously cancelled trips to China.

Due to the evolving nature of coronavirus, we feel this is the most appropriate step to take to keep our students and staff safe. Discussions about all international field trips have been ongoing with families as information about the coronavirus is updated.

More information will be shared with families by their school principals.
