Principal's Message

Greetings MPS!


Dear Mountain Park School Community,
 
My name is Angela Takla and I am deeply honoured to introduce myself as the newly-appointed Principal of MPS, officially assuming my duties as of Monday, October 23, 2023. It's with great enthusiasm that I join this vibrant school community focused on “Motivation, Pride and Success" for each student. Please know that you have my deep commitment to fostering a safe, welcoming and caring school environment, and I am dedicated to working collaboratively with the community and staff at MPS to ensure all students feel a sense of belonging and experience academic achievement. 
 
A little about me. I'm a born-and-raised, first-generation Calgarian and mother of two - ages 16 and 19. I am passionate about the tremendous potential inherent in all young people and the importance of a strong public education system in building and maintaining heathy communities. I have been fortunate to have had a diverse career in education, spanning twenty-seven years and ranging from classroom teaching to supporting complex learners in student services, as well as various system roles such learning leader and specialist. Over the years, I have also had the opportunity to work with pre-service teachers as a sessional instructor at the University of Calgary. Most recently, I served as the Assistant Principal for CBe-learn High School - the online high school for all CBE, where I forged strong partnerships and leveraged technology to advance a school culture of continuous improvement and well-being for learning. 
 
As I move into my new role as principal of MPS, you can expect a continued emphasis on open communication, and will receive regular updates via School Messenger and the school website, including opportunities to participate in your child's educational experiences. Throughout the year, I encourage you to share your perspectives, thoughts and questions with me as well as with your child's teachers. 
 
In closing, I would like to recognize the incredible work that has gone into creating the wonderful community of Mountain Park School - the administration, teachers, support staff, parent and community partnerships. It is my belief that together we can work to build on these successes and elevate the conditions for each student to thrive.    
 
I am looking forward to meeting and working alongside each of you and your children in the school year ahead… Go Wolverines!
 
Sincerely,
Angela Takla
Principal, Mountain Park School
