Digby Alt High

FYI: All remaining CLT days are cancelled for this school year.

TO: All TCRCE Staff and Families
FROM: Jared Purdy, Regional Executive Director
DATE: March 13th, 2026

RE: Collaborative Learning Days

Considering the higher-than-average snow days across the 3 counties of the Tri-County Regional Centre for Education this school year, we have decided to cancel the remaining 3
scheduled Collaborative Learning Days. These days were scheduled for the following:

• Thursday, March 26th, 2026
• Thursday, April 16th, 2026
• Thursday, May 7th, 2026

Maximizing instructional time for our students is of the utmost importance and making this change all but regains a full lost day of instruction. While we value the Collaborative Learning Days and the opportunities they provide our staff for collaboration, we need to be responsive and ensure our students are in school as much as possible.

In the spring, we will gather some feedback from our families as we explore further mitigation strategies for the 2026/2027 school year, which will include revisiting ‘delayed starts’ on days such as our most recent snow day on Wednesday, March 4th.

We wish to acknowledge the complexities these cancelations create for families, and we assure you that these decisions are made with a great deal of care and consideration that focuses on the safety of our students, families and staff.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Sincerely,
Jared Purdy
Regional Executive Director
