Librarian Pauline Zapisocky at St. Catherine School, in Edmonton, signed out textbooks to Grade 9 students on the first day of school on August 12.
St. Catherine School is one of three schools in the Edmonton Catholic Schools district that offer the year-round schooling calendar. Students returned to school in mid-August but will enjoy a two-week fall break in October and a two-week spring break in March.
About 100 schools in Canada follow the year-round schooling calendar. The calendar provides more continuous learning for students, particularly in reading and math, than the traditional calendar.
