Briercrest Christian Academy Highlights

How did you end up at BCA? My husband's job in Regina at the Gov. Correspondence School closed down, and a friend saw a job opening in Caronport and encouraged him to apply!

What is your role at BCA? I am an Educational Assistant

How long have you taught/been on staff at BCA? Since 2011

What is your favorite memory about your job at BCA? I have been able to be in class with Kyron, Mandee, and Marcee—it is a real blessing to be able to be in class with your own kids :)

What do you believe is the most important thing about your job? Being able to make relationships with the students, that will last after they leave our school.

How have you seen students' lives changed as they encounter God at BCA? I’ve seen changes in students while they are at our school and they continue to keep on changing after they leave. To see them reach out to others and care and share their faith is so encouraging
