January 21, 2021 - It is with great pleasure that we announce the appointment of Tracey Wujcik as Division Principal in Evergreen Catholic Schools with her first assignment at St. Joseph Catholic School in Spruce Grove. Tracey began her career with Evergreen Catholic in 1991 at St. Joseph Catholic School, where she taught grade four. This placement is a bit of a homecoming for her. Since then she has taught many grades from kindergarten to grade nine and has served as both in...structional coach, inclusive education coordinator and assistant principal. Tracey believes connection and relationships are central to all success for both students and staff. Tracey completed her Masters in Education with a focus on School Leadership through Memorial University of Newfoundland. Upon receiving the news, Tracey said, I am absolutely thrilled and honored to take on this new role in my leadership journey. I have been so privileged to work in Evergreen and to have had the opportunity to work with so many exceptional educators who have supported, encouraged, and helped me become the leader I am today. I could not be more excited to continue this journey as principal of St. Joseph School, the place where I began my career as a teacher over 29 years ago. I am blessed beyond words and although I am sad to leave my Holy Spirit family, I am eager to re-connect and make new connections with the staff, students and families of St. Joseph. In the words of Brené Brown, Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen. See more

"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh. There was a pause. "Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet. "No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do." ..."That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend. "What are you doing?" asked Pooh. "Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either. "But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh." And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right." A.A. Milne Sending thoughts to everyone having a Difficult Day today. I hope you have your own Piglet to sit beside you
