Former YCS Trustee Candace

Last post- congrats to the new Trustees!

With all YK schools switching from 6 weeks of remote learning 5 DAYS AGO, it’s amazing to see the Halloween events they pulled off. Our kids are lucky to have you ❤️ @ycsnwt @Weledeh @ESJS_Yk @StPatsYK @yk1_schools @csftno

@Weledeh So great to see you all back!

So happy to be back in person! #weledehfamily

Thanks to @ESJS_Yk for a seamless rollout of the home testing kits for students. 10yo was eager to volunteer from the comfort of our living room before heading back to school tomorrow ❤️

Tonight was the last meeting for this board – I’ll send out a closing address tomorrow, but tonight congratulations to all of the Trustees elected earlier this week!

We agree with other education leaders across the NWT that this is the path forward in creating a safe workplace for staff and learning environment for our students.

Brd mtg in 3! @queserayk gave the Spirituality Report. Whenever we hear from Ms. McGee we hear how important the journey is in her design. It’s not just a Sacraments program, its helping students, teachers, and families understand how they are supported through it.

Attached is a communique from YK1, YCS, CSFTNO, NDEA and DDEA regarding today's public health announcement, and the extension of gathering restrictions in Yellowknife, Ndilo and Dettah. Schools will remain closed to in-person learning. Learn more: yk1.nt.ca/view.php?actio…

Happy World Teacher Day to all of our amazing teachers and classroom assistants! YCS is blessed to have each and every one of you supporting our students. Now and always! Thank you for everything you do!! @Weledeh @StPatsYK @ESJS_Yk news18.com/news/lifestyle…

The need to help students/families navigate learning has seen a spotlight in the last 18 months, but the truth is it was always there. Needs are ever changing and so are the skills to support them. It’s important to keep investing in this program and it takes work- thank you!
