Celebrating Bailey Johnson: A Teacher at Northland Online School
Posted on October 3
Northland School Division (NSD) is excited and proud to celebrate Bailey Johnson, one of our teachers at Northland Online School! A graduate of University of British Columbia’s (UBC) Indigenous Teacher Education Program, Bailey brings Indigenous culture into her teaching, making her a perfect example of our Education Plan's Priority 1 - Connections Supporting Reconciliation. This priority focuses on strengthening connections to land, Indigenous languages, and school communities.
Before the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Bailey participated in interviews about the importance of Indigenous education.
