I was recently hired as a Teaching Principal for the Chipewyan Lake Community School with the Northland School Division in Northern Alberta, straight north of the Wabascan oilfields and Edmonton in Canada for this coming school year 2008-2009. It was my strong foundational background in terms of training and experience in the literacy/reading program that got me to the top. Kudos to DLSU for those graduate foundational courses.
