Last month Bow Valley College Education Assistant learner, Kelly Batt, wrote a letter to Mayor Bronconnier about the work that Education Assistants do each day in schools all over Calgary. As a result the City of Calgary has officially recognized today, May 6, 2009, as Education Assistant Day.
In celebration of this special day the Bow Valley College Alumni Association, Calgary Board of Education and Foothills Academy are sponsoring a recognition event for Education Assistants. This is the second annual celebration for Education Assistants and it is expected that over 100 Education Assistants from across the city will be in attendance.
If you work with, or have a child who is supported by an Education Assistant please take a moment today to tell them that they are appreciated – today is a day to celebrate the countless contributions that Education Assistants make every day in our education system!
