NOTICES & COMING EVENTS Frontier School Division Frontier School Division is committed to providing highest quality education in each of our 43 schools. The most essential component in providing this is the classroom teacher. In response to our current teacher shortage, we are establishing the Term Teacher Program. The Term Teacher Program is intended to provide teachers who, for a variety of reasons, are not able or do not wish to teach full-time. This may include retired teachers who wish to teach seasonally, job share for the school year (i.e. one teacher for the first term and another for the second term), teachers who have personal needs that preclude full-time employment or teachers who may be game for a new experience without making a full-time commitment. The Term Teacher Program provides opportunity to determine when and where you are willing to teach. We are open to discussing options that meet your needs. The Term Teacher Program will ensure all options are explored to match the needs of the school and the skills of the teacher. Currently, we have a number of positions available in a variety of grades/subject areas for the 2019-20 school year. These are available due to various circumstances, which may include: • Maternity/parental leaves; • Medical Leaves; • Specialty subject area assignments; • Unexpected departures. For more information regarding the opportunities available through this Program, please contact Human Resources via email at [email protected]. Frontier School Division offers a competitive salary as well as a number of additional benefits and allowances such as moving expenses, annual travel, housing and isolation.
