Winnipeg's largest school division will release its back-to-class plan later Monday, but a spokesperson told CBC News the strategy won't waver much from the provincial health guidelines released last week. Nevertheless, the Winnipeg School Division — which represents 78 schools with more than 32,000 students and more than 4,500 staff members — is urging people to mask up. "Oh yes, we definitely want people to wear masks," Carter said. Cohorts and classroomsIn the Winnipeg School Division, students from nursery to Grade 8 will have classes every day, five days per week. Cohorts, groups of students that will be together throughout the school day and for the full week, will also be established.
