The Waterloo Region District School Board and the Waterloo Catholic District School Board cancelled all buses and closed all schools.

Instead of a typical snow day, students switched to remote learning given that it has become all the rage during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Students will participate in distance learning,” the public board tweeted on Tuesday morning.

“Teachers in both in-person and distance learning programs will provide learning resources from home and be available to students during the regular school day hours.
