A message of thanks for GSCS staff.
The Province of Saskatchewan has declared the week of February 11 – 17 as Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week with the theme Shaping the Future Together.
On behalf of the board and senior administration, we extend a heartfelt thank you to each one of you for your unwavering dedication, creativity, and hard work.
We celebrate not just your professional contributions, but also the passion, patience, and perseverance you bring to our school communities each and every day.
In Catholic education, we often call the work we do a vocation, a calling to love and serve God by loving and serving others. It is heart-warming to see how you support students, families and each other this way.
St. Paul, our patron, expresses it this way: "And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly … And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." (Colossians 3:15-17)
The impact you make extends beyond the classroom walls, shaping the lives of students in profound ways. And that should be celebrated!
Thank you, and may God richly bless you.

Board of Education Chair Director of Education
