Dawn Paylor named one of Canada’s Outstanding Principals
Lakeview Elementary Principal, Dawn Paylor, has been recognized as one of Canada’s Outstanding Principals by The Learning Partnership. One of just two Principals named to the list of 40 from Saskatchewan, Paylor was overwhelmed by the nomination. “It’s definitely an honour that someone would even put my name forward.”
The nomination process required letters of support be written from colleagues, parents of students and a community member. Each letter referenced her passion for education, compassion for students and families, and leadership.
Paylor credits the team at Lakeview for her success, “I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without them. We work so collaboratively – this recognizes all the work that we have done together.”
In addition to the award, being named one of Canada’s Outstanding Principals comes with an exclusive professional development opportunity. Winners will attend an executive leadership training program at one of Canada’s top business schools, the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management.
