BJORKDALE —The Bjorkdale School will see some changes in the near future.
Joanne Schmidt will replace physical education teacher Jordann Kovach. Jordann has been at the Bjorkdale School for seven years and has been transferred to Tisdale Middle & Secondary School. We wish her well in her future school. Kimberley Spade will be filling in for Alicia Orosz while off on leave. She is originally from the Sylvania area and went to school in Tisdale. Other changes also include when you call the school, Brianna Vegso will answer the phone call starting at the end of the month. She is replacing Sherry Fredsberg, who transferred to the North East School Division IT department.
