Elizabeth Ziegler Public School in Waterloo closed for two more weeks over safety concerns
Social Sharing Elizabeth Ziegler Public School in Waterloo, Ont., will be closed for most of this month after safety concerns were raised about the building's exact concerns with the facade of the school were not released. The Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) has extended the closure from March 17 to March 28. In-person learning is currently scheduled to resume on March 31. The school was also closed for most of last week. In a press release, WRDSB says students and families are being asked to pick up a Chromebook or iPad at the school on Monday to help with continue learning remotely during the temporary closure. "Teachers will teach synchronously and will be available to students during the regular school day hours on their Google Classrooms. Students are invited to participate as they are able," WRDSB said in the release posted online. Decision to close made 'out of an abundance of caution' The public school board says contractors plan to continue "conducting comprehensive structural testing" and "evaluating and determining next steps" during the closure. Before and after school programs run at the school are also closed. "The decision to close the Elizabeth Ziegler building was made out of an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of students and staff," the board said in a statement last week. A sign on the school's front lawn says there is road work underway on Moore Avenue. In an emailed statement, the city of Waterloo told CBC News there is no link between the road work and the school closure. The school's building was constructed in 1931 and is an example of the Gothic Revival style. A primary classroom wing was added to the school in 1954 and a gym was built in 1986. Further renovations to the Kindergarten wing were made in 2013.
