It's only fitting that the NLTA's #EducationWeek falls during Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week. 2026’s theme is “Learn! Teach! Inspire/Apprendre! Enseigner! Inspirer!” That is exactly what our dedicated staff do every day, no matter their role.

A big thank you to @kimkirby1.bsky.social for all you do to support students and families at our school. Happy Canadian School Counselling Week to you!
Emphasizing mental well-being is vital to help students grow into successful adults, and school counsellors provide social-emotional and academic support. Thank you to all of our counsellors. You make a difference!
