October is National Principal's Month. We asked Lisa Clarke, Principal in Mission School District, the following question:

"What does educational leadership mean to you?"

Our 2025 Co-Chairs- Jeff Maynard SD48 & Riley McMitchell SD39 - open the BCPVPA Connecting Leaders Conference along with BCPVPA President Dr. Shannon Behan, SD48 Chair Rebecca Barley, & Principals Shawne Callihoo SD43 & Rose MacKenzie SD39.

Tomorrow we welcome @simonbreakspear.bsky.social #edusky

The first BCPVPA Compass Leadership Academy is now underway! We are together in Vancouver with more than 200 new-to-role members from across BC, & 30 members dedicating their time as table facilitators. This weekend's learning is foundational for new leaders - stay tuned! #edusky

When you ask Compass participants what they are excited about in their roles, what has surprised them so far, and what they already know they need to learn... and ask them to share with as many people as possible! #edusky

BCPVPA staff present on the Year at a Glance - described by some members as the most important tool in their kit! - at the Compass Leadership Academy.

Attendees are discussing the shift in the rhythm of the year with their shift in role. #edusky

The BCPVPA is happy to be here on Bluesky! 🦋
We support and represent school and district Principals and Vice-Principals in the public education system in British Columbia, Canada, through professional learning, leadership development, and employment relationship support. We'd love to connect!

Thank you @bcpvpa.bsky.social for another incredible few days of connecting, learning and leading. The board meeting, chapter presidents’ and chapter council meetings were awesome. Having the opportunity to introduce a community partnership recipient was especially meaningful.

Our BCPVPA President Dr. Shannon Behan was thrilled to meet @lisabeare.bsky.social, the new Minister of Education and Child Care, and new Deputy Minister, Kathryn Krishna, at #BCSTA 'Illuminate' this morning.
We are looking forward to our work together - it's an exciting time in public education!

Enjoying today’s presentations at @bcpvpa.bsky.social’s Chapter Council meeting for Presidents. Meeting and connecting with Admin from around the province. #EduSky #Leadership
