Welcome, Mrs. Leung!On Wednesday, we said adios to Mr. Just Bechthold who has accepted a Math Specialist role with CBE and is working downtown in support of developing teacher capacity around math instruction, as he did here within his teaching teams as a Learning Leader. We are fortunate to welcome Mrs. Crystal Hedeman, who was already successfully working with the grade 7 team for a short-term leave, and has moved down the hall to work with 7-2, creating a somewhat seamless transition for our students.SCHOOL PLANNING | 2022-23 SCHOOL YEARIt’s that time of year where we are making decisions around staffing and class organization for next year.
