In honour of World Teachers’ Day, the Central Okanagan Board of Education is pleased to recognize the contributions of the 1500 teachers within the Central Okanagan School District. This dedicated group of professionals provides invaluable training, mentorship, and encouragement to nearly 22,000 students each day.
Since UNESCO launched World Teachers’ Day in 1993, October 5th provides an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the work of teachers. Worldwide, there are more than 60 million teachers, the majority of them working in developing countries with limited resources. As such, this day is also a reminder that the great strides in Canadian education are a result of the hard work of countless people working together over many years to create a brighter future for children.
We encourage everyone in the community to recognize the indispensable, often challenging, task of teachers on World Teachers’ Day and everyday.
Moyra Baxter, Chairperson of the Board of Education
Hugh Gloster, Superintendent of Schools
