Meet the staff at Warren Peers School.
Jaime Didychuk: I am returning for my 23 year at WPS. I teach grade 7,8 and 9 math, as well as some grade 3-4 math and elementary PE. I also direct the junior high drama production and run the schools archery program. I am proud of what we offer our students.
Lora Fletcher-Wilson: I am currently the principal and a teacher at Warren Peers School. I currently live on a farm outside of Eatonia, SK with my son and husband. I have taught in small rural schools for my whole teaching career starting in Consort, AB, then to Bindloss, AB and now Acadia Valley, AB. I am so privileged to work with such a great staff and I am thankful for all the community support of our small school.
Lori Kellington: My name is Lori Kellington and I have been working at Warren Peers School since 2011. I have the perfect job because I get to wear different hats. I am the Admin assistant or school secretary, I am the EA in our social video conferencing classes and also the school librarian. It is a very rewarding job and I love it because I get to work with all the different grades and a wonderful staff.
Kirsten McCurdy: Born (a LONG time ago) and raised in Calgary, I lived in a great neighbourhood halfway between the Stampede Grounds and the Zoo. I think this formed my character. After I graduated from Western Canada High School, I attended the University of Lethbridge and graduated with a Bachelor of Education with a major in Drama and a specialization in Early Childhood Education.
My first job was teaching Kindergarten in a tiny rural community called Bonanza, 2 hours northwest of Grande Prairie. Culture shock! Then I came to Empress to teach at Kitchener School. Although I didn’t think I would stay in this area for long, one day I met a handsome and friendly rancher named Syd. We married, had two boys, Chance (29) and Connor (27), and I have come to love and appreciate this wild and complex land we live on.
I have taught in Empress, Bindloss, New Brigden, Schuler, and Acadia Valley, where I continue to teach various subjects in Grades 1-9. I love the community, the kids, and the staff. I am truly blessed. I’m looking forward to the greatest school year yet!
