Nova Scotia's education minister says the government may use online learning so students don't have to miss as much school due to the weather. Zach Churchill told reporters Thursday that the province learned a lot about at-home learning last year after students spent the spring term learning from home. "We will be enhancing our virtual and online learning opportunities and resources, and so I think that's a conversation that's going to be ongoing over this year for sure," he said. Nova Scotia is considering a move to online learning when bad weather strikes. While there were some snow days in the 2019-20 school year, students faced even more school cancellations due to COVID-19.
