Exciting news! NWSD is pleased to share that a new local bargaining agreement with the North West Teachers' Association (NWTA) has been signed. This renewed partnership will strengthen our commitment to supporting teachers across the school division.
Thank you to all members of the negotiating teams -

The LINC agreement covers locally determined benefits and responsibilities for teachers, such as extra-curricular service, teacher preparation time, before and after school voluntary service, pay for sub teachers, and other non-salary items.
It is not part of the current STF and Government Trustee Bargaining Committee negotiations.

Board: Duane Hauk, Davin Hildebrand, Charlie McCloud, Michelle Pickett, Carol Ferguson
NWTA: Anita Hamm, Brent Keen, Desiree Klarner, Allison Powell

  • Supervision may be provided by non-teaching staff and/or approved volunteers. 

  • Each school may be impacted differently, depending on the availability of supervisors. School plans could range from a normal school day schedule to an adjusted school day schedule with an earlier dismissal. 

​NWSD's plan:

  • All extra-curricular activities will be cancelled.

  • Extra-curricular activities include sports, drama, music, science clubs, intramurals, rehearsals, student leadership activities, planning for graduation celebrations, and other approved extra-curricular activities run by STF members.
