Carissa Hart was recently appointed vice principal of TM Roberts Elementary School by the School District No. 5 (SD5) Board of Education and looks forward to welcoming students back to school in September.
Born and raised in Sudbury ON, Hart graduated Lasalle Secondary School with her French Immersion Certificate. In 2002 she received her Bachelor of Health and Physical Education, with honours, from Laurentian University in Sudbury. In 2005, Hart received her Bachelors of Education from Nipissing University in North Bay ON. She is currently working on her Master of Education in Leadership and Administration.
Hart has worked for SD5 since 2009, most recently at Isabella Dicken Elementary School (IDES) in Fernie as a French Immersion, Library and Physical Education teacher.
“I’m excited to be a part of the dynamic school community at TM Roberts and collaborating with the students, staff and parents to bring French and English Literacy Centres into the Library,” says Hart. “I’m also looking forward to sharing dialogue with my colleagues around assessment practices that support the renewed curriculum.”
SD5 Board Chair, Frank Lento, says Hart’s strong background in French Immersion –and physical education—is an asset to the District’s most populous elementary school.
“TM Roberts is a large and diverse school. Carissa’s passion for language, literacy and physical education and her excellent leadership skills will compliment the many skills and abilities of the school’s current staff.”
Hart is currently a part of the District’s Environmental Education Team. She also enjoys coaching gymnastics, hiking and canoeing.
