Several school boards across the province are rescheduling their PA days to align with the upcoming solar eclipse.
This means that on April 8th, numerous students will be staying home from school locally in hopes of avoiding any eye injuries.
We interviewed Backyard Astronomer Gary Boyle about the upcoming eclipse, and he fully supports school boards taking a cautious approach.
Boyle mentioned that the eclipse will last roughly from 2 p.m. until 4:30 p.m.
If you are willing to spend some money, there are “Eclipse glasses” and other products available on the market.
However, Boyle advises conducting some research before making a purchase.
