Dear CSS Learning Community,

It is a privilege to be returning to Chatelech as Principal for the 2025/2026 school year.  Our school resides on the traditional territory of the shíshálh nation and we are honoured to learn and collaborate on these lands. I have spent many years as VP, teacher librarian and classroom teacher at Chatelech during my time at SD46. 

The core values of Empathy, Responsibility, Respect and Integrity ground us as a learning community at CSS and are the basis for how we interact with each other and our surroundings.  Our values act to guide us and to help prepare our students for life beyond the walls of our high school community.

Please know that I care deeply about our school and learning community and am committed to working with students, staff and the greater community to ensure the best possible opportunities for our learners.  My background in Compassionate Systems Leadership and the experiences I have had as a teacher and principal as well as feedback from staff, students and the community will guide decision-making at CSS.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to the school if you have questions.  I am so looking forward with excitement to the 2025/2026 school year.
