Welcome to Mrs. Lehmann and Mrs. White’s CDA corner
Mrs. Lehmann:
I am so excited to be part of the Prairie Waters Team again this year! I feel so lucky to be able to take my passion for children and their families and put it into practice. I have been working in the field of early childhood for 24 years and a member of the Prairie Waters family for 9 years. One of my families favourite things to do is go camping. I also love watching my 16 year old son play hockey, baseball and basketball. Here's to another great year at PWE!
Mrs. White:
Welcome PWE families! I am very happy to be joining Mrs. Lehmann in the role of child development advisor for another year. I have been a part of the Prairie Waters team, supporting students in the classroom, since 2016 and supporting our student body mental wellness since 2019. I bring over 20 years of experience working in the classroom and school settings to my assignment, as well as education and training in psychology and applied behaviour analysis. I strongly encourage using natural, community and universal supports for our students and approaching all challenges from a positive and strength-based standpoint. When I am not at school, you can find me in the garden, at the lake or playing board and video games with my family!
