Nicki Nightingale
I am thrilled to be a part of the school support team at PWPSD. I was fortunate to teach a variety of grades in a variety of subjects in my first nine years of teaching. In 2020, after falling (back) in love with math, I completed by Master in Curriculum and Instruction of Numeracy.
My goal is to share the beauty and joy of math with others. I collect good math problems and passport stamps. #mathrocks

I am excited for the opportunity to fill the role of Numeracy Coordinator with Peace Wapiti Public School Division. Have been a classroom teacher for 14 years and working on my Master of Education Interdisciplinary - Educational Neuroscience and Learning Disabilities, I am passionate about using evidence-based practices in our classrooms to address the needs of our students.
My goal is to inspire teachers to get excited about teaching math.

Rowena Stewart
Being literate is a critical life skill in our society. Hence, every time we advance a child's literacy skills, we improve their school experience, as well as their future quality of life. Yet, learning to read and write is very challenging for so many children. In order to address these learning challenges, I believe that a harmonious combination of effective classroom instruction and targeted interventions are crucial for success.
Over the years, I have served PWPSD in various capacities, as a classroom teacher, inclusive coach, and reading intervention coordinator. As we move forward into a new year, I look forward to serving PWPSD as we collectively advance our literacy instruction in the Language Arts classroom and beyond.

I began my teaching career in northern Alberta where I worked as a Literacy Lead at St. Theresa School in Wabasca. I moved to Grande Prairie in 2015 and in 2023 started my PWPSD journey teaching Grade 3 at Clairmont Community School.
I am excited to officially join the PWPSD Literacy team and look forward to using my passion and knowledge of literacy to support student learning within our division.
