Students in the Horizon School Division will be out on Christmas Break very soon.

The last day of classes will be on December 21st and will resume on January 7th. 

Kevin Garinger, Director of Education with Horizon School Division, on how the break offers a good rest period for staff and students.

"It will be a nice 2-week break for everyone, to recharge, as well as spend time with family and loved ones throughout this important time of year."

Garinger continued, "I think staff and students see it as an opportunity to really relax and enjoy from the heavy burden that school has on everyone involved."

Garinger also noted that the process for finalizing next year's schedule has started. It involves the entire staff, to ensure that the schedule meets the needs of all involved.
