With some Quebec schools set to reopen next week, parents are facing a tough choice to send their kids back to class under restrictive and ambiguous rules or continue to keep them at home. The English Montreal School Board, for example, has informed parents there will be no music, drama, art, or physical education classes, and students may not have the same teachers or even be in the same class as before. This is what returning to school will look like in Quebec later this month. Barberio says she has no choice but to send her kids back to school, but she is uncomfortable with the guidelines students have to follow. Lin Sok, who has three children in the English Montreal School Board system, said despite the numbers, reopening schools is something the province has to eventually do.
