As public elementary students prepare for a strike day tomorrow, we are finding out when school will be called off next week.

The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario is holding a province-wide strike tomorrow.
Public elementary schools in the DSBN will be closed again on Friday for a one-day, rotating strike.
The union is holding it's next province-wide strike on Tuesday.
Niagara will be hit by another rotating, one-day strike next Wednesday as well.
ETFO President Sam Hammond says the province and the union were close to a deal in recent talks, before negotiators changed positions at the last minute.
