As the vision for Re-Imagine Education takes shape, an invaluable component when it comes to bringing this initiative to life would be that of including teacher voice.

From personal experience, I am annually astounded at the innovation and passion demonstrated by classroom teachers throughout the province.

While we try to highlight these teachers frequently in the Saskatchewan Bulletin it would add another dimension if teachers were to share their own personal experiences for colleagues to contemplate.

That is why, commencing in the fall with the September issue of the Bulletin, we are hoping that teachers will find the time to share their own situation in written form. We will then publish them under the banner of This is My Classroom which will be included as a monthly column during the school year.

Not unlike school teachers, I would suggest the month of June invites a sense of introspection.

Those in the classrooms and in administration might take a few moments to contemplate their respective successes and challenges during the soon-to-be completed school year.

As I sit down to write my last article for the Saskatchewan Bulletin as the Superannuated Teachers of Saskatchewan (STS) President, I would like to thank the Bulletin staff and the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation for providing our local chapter with the opportunity to update teachers who are still in the classroom with regard to the activities of the STS.

REGINA–Ten Saskatchewan schools are each receiving $10,000 to support student nutrition after winning the Mosaic Extreme School Makeover Challenge for 2018.

“This year we received a record 70 applications for the Makeover Challenge and the winning schools and their projects are once again impressive and inspiring,” said Sarah Fedorchuk, Vice-President, Public Affairs and Government Relations at The Mosaic Company. “We’re very excited to hear more about their efforts to make nutrition a daily part of student lives with the funding Mosaic provides.”
