Welcome,
My name is Tara Baird and I am pleased to be working with the Red Wolves team.
I have been teaching for over 20 years in the Saanich & Greater Victoria School districts. I am also an instructor at the University of Victoria in the Faculty of Education.
I am a French & Technology specialist, but my favourite subject is Math.
This is where I have focused my professional development over the last 10 years.
My immediate family includes: 1 hilarious 6th grader (Robbie), 1 Crested Gecko (Gandalf) & 1 silly Boston Terrier (Oscar).
I believe that everyone has the ability to learn–just not at the same moment or in the same way.
I have high expectations for myself and my students–fairness & commonsense woven throughout all that we do.
I LOVE to laugh–kids crack me up. I am truly grateful to be a teacher.
Thank you for reading this far 🙂
