As some of you know, Mrs. Alice Smit, our longstanding high school art teacher, was in a car accident last Spring. Her recovery has not gone as smoothly as she would have liked and doctors have advised her not to return to work for at least a couple more months. As such, we will have posted a part-time, high school art teaching position.

In the meantime, we have hired and are seeking Ministry of Education certification for Mrs. Andrea Fredeen, a retired physiotherapist and experienced artist. Along with her personal faith in Jesus, Andrea has a Bachelor of Fine Arts through Emily Carr and UNBC, a Masters of Arts in English at UNBC, and is very active in the Northern BC arts community as an artist and workshop facilitator. The position will be posted for at least the next two weeks to provide opportunity to certified, Christian teacher applicants.

We are thankful for God’s continued provision in unexpected ways! Let us continue to pray for complete healing for Mrs. Smit!

Report card for high school students will be ready for pick-up on Friday, June 28, between 9:00am and 3:00pm. Reports not picked up by 3:00pm will be mailed home.

Graduates: Paper copies of your official BC transcript will be mailed near the end of August.
