In Jan, we looked at the 1st video in the "5P's of Inclusion" series, "The Importance of Presuming Competence." THIS month we connect to Indigenous world views and look at the second P: the role of PLACE! Here is a BRAND NEW 5MM Video! AWSP youtube.com/watch?v=VZeWXe…

Good news for teachers. If you live in Sask or BC you are now eligible for the vaccine. In Sask all school staff including custodians are now eligible. Maybe one day soon teachers will be a priority in Alberta too. Nate Glubish Jordan Walker #strathco #shpk #AbLeg #ATA

Dear Alberta teachers/educators, As parents we are so grateful for the support and encouragement you provide our kids. We wish you all well with the transition to online learning again. Thank you for showing up everyday, you are all heroes in the eyes of my family. We see you ❤️

A huge shout out to every k-12 Alberta parent, teacher, administrator and mostly the students for going online today! This is the safe choice regardless of its difficulty. We are made to do hard things, and we have each other! Alberta Teachers' Association Dr. Jody Carrington • Psychologist

Friends, today’s Gospel declares that when the Spirit comes, he will guide us into all truth. We don’t think our way to an understanding of God so much as we live our way to it. And so today we pray, “Come, Holy Spirit, come!” bible.usccb.org/bible/readings…

Happening tomorrow! #BlueforCatholicEd #worldcatholiceducationday
