Meadow Lake principal awarded as outstanding
A Meadow Lake educator is on her way to Toronto after being recognized as one of the best in her field.
Lakeview Elementary School Principal Dawn Paylor was selected as one of Canada’s Outstanding Principals, an annual awards event to recognize public school educators. Paylor’s nomination was supported by several references from parents, colleagues and members of the community.
“I’m truly blessed with an amazing staff,” Paylor said in an interview. “They are very supportive, I’ve got many leaders on staff in the area of early childhood and the teaching of reading, First Nations, Inuit, and Metis education.”
Paylor has helped create initiatives like the Response to Intervention program where teachers and administrators developed a three-tiered system to meet the learning and behavioural needs of students in the classroom.
