On top of enhanced health measures, Alberta is providing school divisions $120 million in extra funding, millions in infrastructure funding, & access to their $363 million in reserves - all of which can be used for measures to prevent COVID-19 spread. https://edmontonjournal.com/news/politics/kenney-lagrange-to-announce-albertas-school-re-entry-plan-tuesday-afternoon
On the advice of @CMOH_Alberta we are opening schools with extra cleaning, sanitization, & grouping in cohorts, and providing a guide for parents & students at http://alberta.ca/returntoschool 

There is no zero-risk option for facing COVID-19, but working together, we can lower the risk.
For parents who want keep their children at home, they are free to do so - government will not force parents to send kids to in-person classes.

We have created a new student learning hub to support more online learning in the event it may be needed at: http://new.learnalberta.ca
