RUNDLE historian Richard Lawson I have been teaching at Rundle Academy for close to twenty years and it has been time well spent. I graduated from the University of British Columbia and went straight to work teaching on a Hutterite Colony in rural Southern Alberta. From there I travelled to Japan where I spent three years teaching English in the Japanese public school system. Upon arriving home, I began work as a teacher assistant at the “My years at Rundle Academy have newly-formed Rundle Academy, helped mold me into the teacher and and received a full-time teaching person I am today. I could not imagine teaching anywhere else.� position the following year. I have been with the Academy through its growing pains as it strived to set down roots as a viable option for students with learning disabilities. I have watched the program flourish into the magnificent school that it is today. Over the years, I have dabbled on the administrative side of things, but still find that my heart remains with teaching the wonderful students that walk through our doors every morning. I still find it deeply rewarding teaching students with learning disabilities and truly satisfying watching them succeed after graduation.
Recognize anyone?
