​Nancy Janelle​
Principal
​​

It truly is a privilege to be the principal of the Seven Oaks Met School. I believe the Met's 3R's (relationships, relevance, and rigor) and 'one student at a time' framework is an ideal platform for teaching and learning.  After teaching EAL (English as an Additional Language) in Korea, Nepal, and Guatemala, and witnessing massive inequality and environmental destruction around the world, I was inspired to do my part to make the world a better place.  Read more...​

I consider myself very fortunate to be an advisor at Seven Oaks Met School. I've been teaching at Seven Oaks Met the last 7 Β½ years and I am currently working towards graduation with my second advisory. It is by far and away my favorite teaching experience. I love getting the chance to work with students over a four-year period. Seeing students grow through high school is incredibly rewarding. read more ....​

Dave Law.tif
​​I love, love, love teaching here at the Met school! I am extremely passionate about education in general, but I have a particular passion for student-led, inquiry and project-based learning. I thrive in a school like Met, where students and staff alike collaborate to achieve the best possible opportunities for learning. My goal as an educator is to create open-minded, critical thinkers who see themselves as global citizens and lifelong learners. I strive to establish a classroom of active learners who think in the long term.  read more....

What an amazing opportunity it is to teach wellness at the Seven Oaks Met School! My name is Clinton Neufeld and I have been teaching in the Seven Oaks School Division for four years now, in both middle school (grade 6 at H.C. Avery) and in early years (grade 3/4 at West St. Paul and grade 4 at Forest Park). I graduated from the University of Manitoba with a bachelor of physical education and a bachelor of education. Prior to going to university I had a career in the trucking industry. I chose to make a career change and decided to become a physical education teacher as I had a passion for helping kids see the value in living a physically active life.​ β€‹read more ....​

​​I​ am so excited to work with the students and adviser's at the Seven Oaks Met School. The privilege of teaching here is one that I am supremely honoured to have and I aim to make my advisory a great place to be. I feel that students learn best when they can lay hands on and experience what they are learning and intend to bring that to every lesson we have. I have had a lifelong love for science, math, comic books and am generally an all-around nerd. read more....
