Parents and teachers will be notified as soon as the tests arrive and will have at least two days in advance to prepare for the resumption of attendance classes for children in grades I to IV.

Young students in 13 districts that already have the necessary tests and whose parents agree their children to be tested twice a week, can return to class on Wednesday, November 10th.
