The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board is the largest school board in Eastern Ontario and offers students and parents a world of choice for learning. Our nearly 150 schools offer a wide range of programs to promote learning excellence and meet the individual needs of students, parents, and the community at large. Our schools are teaching communities where principals, vice-principals, teachers and support staff nurture student well-being and challenge students to achieve their best.

We are seeking creative, dynamic, and committed teachers to join our team at Stephen Leacock Public School. We are a K-6 French Immersion centre of approximately 500 students located on unceded and unsurrendered Algonquin Territory in North Kanata. Many of our students are multilingual and many of our parents and caregivers have a particular expertise in their field that led the family to Kanata North either from another location in Canada or from an International location. We have a strong focus on structured literacy in our school both in French and in English and we strive to build a strong foundation in mathematical thinking, processes and procedures. We use the Third Path resource to support our students' social and emotional development and sense of belonging and having adaptable, student centered instruction is critical to our school success plan.

Ideal candidates will support the fulfillment of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board’s (OCDSB) Strategic Plan to enhance the quality of education in the school, and the District, by creating a positive and inclusive school climate, learning and workplace environment. Candidates will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, a demonstrated ability to work collaboratively and respectfully,



with a human rights and equity perspective, to foster student success, achievement and well-being.
