Current situation

Updated Thursday, February 25, 2021

On Friday, March 5, the Cree School Board will be closed for a Well-Being Day.

As part of the CSB’s ongoing efforts to promote mental health and wellness in our schools, all CSB buildings will be closed for a Well-Being day on Friday, March 5.

It is our sincere hope that this Well-Being Day gives everyone a chance to recharge and enjoy a moment of rest.
