Hello, my name is
Sarah Edwards and I am excited to be the incoming principal! I came to Discovery two years ago as the Assistant Principal when we as a global community began experiencing some of the most challenging moments in our lives. I touch on this, because we learned, even more, the value of relationships and connections.
I taught for 15 years and bring an additional 5 years of administrative experience, 4 of which in primary schools, to Discovery. The starting point for all of my work as an educator, has and will continue to be, focused on relationships and interactions of the school community, because these relationships are what builds, supports, and embraces all of us when life is challenging. It is our understanding, or lack of, that becomes conversations and connections. When I am not at school, you may find me outdoors in nature riding my bike, hiking a trail with family or friends, or playing with my dogs. I have a deep belief that happiness is found in the balance of life and nature. Over the next weeks and months, I encourage you to seek me out, introduce yourself, ask questions, and have grace as the school transitions. Discovery Primary is a great school and will continue to grow in its ability to be both your family’s education ally and advocate.
