Casual Educational Assistant - Palliser North & North

Palliser North, North Central – Casual Educational Assistants Required

The Palliser School Division takes pride in serving many diverse school communities across southern Alberta. We believe diversity is one of our greatest strengths. Palliser is deeply committed to providing learning environments that are safe, caring, inclusive and responsive to the needs of our students.

Palliser is committed to engendering and supporting the values of the broader society: empathy, integrity, respect, trust and responsibility. If the children of this community are to realize these values, the division acknowledges its responsibility to provide an exemplary education.

Applications are invited for Casual Educational Assistants in the Palliser North & North Central area schools. Educational Assistants provide various support to students, assist teachers and school-based counsellors with adapting academic and non-instructional tasks. They assist in areas of personal care and behaviour management under the supervision of teachers, principals and other child care professionals and are an integral part of the collaborative team.

If you are patient, flexible, empathic and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, you are a perfect fit for our organization. Experience and understanding of ADHD, FASD, ODD and other behavioural disabilities would be considered an asset. Building a strong rapport with students is key to a successful career as an Educational Assistant
