We are pleased to announce that Thursday, November 15, 2018 is Educational Assistant Appreciation
Day. This day recognizes the invaluable contributions that Educational Assistants make to the lives of
students and the school communities within our board.
Each day, Educational Assistants demonstrate a kind and caring approach to the children and youth they
support in schools. By using their professional toolbox, which is filled with valuable knowledge, skills and
experiences, they help grow the achievement and well-being of students.
Through intentional guidance, educational assistants help improve life outcomes for students by helping
them become more independent, capable and confident learners.
