Description
is a strength and inclusion is a right. Our common goal is to design
interdisciplinary and personalized instructional approaches to create safe, purposeful and
powerful learning environments in order that all students can think
critically, create, collaborate, contribute and learn. Teachers
actively
work on teacher learning teams using collaborative models of support to
co-plan, co-teach and co-assess in an inclusive setting, using invisible
interventions. Additionally, teachers mentor students, over time,
in reflecting on where their personal interests and strengths overlap with
emerging career-life opportunities in the world.
All teachers
must be prepared to use a variety of technology for planning, attendance
monitoring, communicating classroom instruction and reporting, and be prepared
to support the School Improvement Plan and District goals through Indigenous
ways of knowing, being and doing and the Four Blankets of Resilience.
Using a
behavioral approach in the interview process, we are seeking qualified
candidates with proven success in these areas. The behavioral interview process
includes describing the situation or task, the actions you took and the results
you achieved.
