Pre-applications are now open for Emergency Childhood Education (ECC) spaces in Muskoka.
The District has opened the process in order to save time, as the most recent word from the Province is that students will be engaged in virtual learning starting April 19th.
The District is currently working with operators, school boards, the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit and the Province to make ECC spaces available in Gravenhurst, Huntsville and Bracebridge. Locations are yet to be finalized.
You can find the eligible workers list by clicking here.
