Assistants (EA) are important members of our school teams. EA’s work collaboratively with teachers and
other professionals to support students with diverse learning needs. As an EA you will create inclusive learning

sensory and learning challenges to help the student reach their full potential.
We are noted for our progressive
approach to instruction, our firm belief in Inclusive Education, advocacy for Indigenous
Learning and an emphasis on social-emotional learning. Our 25 elementary and 7 secondary schools
