Our next From Student to Teacher feature is... Megan Lanceleve!
Megan is currently on maternity leave, and is the vice principal of École Notre Dame Elementary! When she attended Lakeland Catholic Schools she said it felt like family.
"When starting my teaching career I knew that was something I wanted and I knew exactly where I could find that. I also knew that Lakeland Catholic valued high quality instruction and put time and effort into developing their teachers skills in this area. I knew that returning would allow me to grow my practice in an environment that was innovative and supportive."

This From Student to Teacher feature is.... Amy Lang!
Not only was Amy a former Dr. Bernard Brosseau student, but she has returned as a teacher!
"Retuning back to Bonnyville and teaching at LCSD was the best decision I could have made! I wanted to be able to give back to our amazing community, and create lasting memories within our schools, just as I was able to experience myself as a student."

Lynne was a student at Lakeland Catholic Schools from Kindergarten to her graduation in 1991! She came back to teach at LCSD "because I had a great experience as a student in the division and wanted to make a positive impact in the same way that many of my teachers had on me when I was growing up."
