Our vision: The Calgary Board of Education is the dynamic learning community of choice. We provide quality learning opportunities and options. Our learners take ownership by discovering and developing their potential, passions and gifts. They take their place as lifelong learners and make a significant contribution within a complex, changing world. Our values: Students come first. We believe that everyone can learn. Each student is unique and worthwhile. We acknowledge, recognize and celebrate the diversity of our learners. Success for each and every student is the goal of our work. Learning is our central purpose. We believe that learning empowers students to achieve their potential. Attention to continuous improvement, high expectations, innovation and relationships will enable all students to reach their potential. Student learning is at the heart of everyone's work at the Calgary Board of Education. Public education serves the common good. Public education is essential for a vibrant democracy. The principles of democracy drive our accountability to the public and the public's participation in our work. Our school system is owned by and accountable to Calgarians and therefore, the Calgary Board of Education is accountable to Calgary taxpayers for using resources wisely to meet students' learning needs.

We educate and empower students from kindergarten to Grade 12 through our mission of Living and Learning in our Catholic Faith so that students, centred in Christ, realize their full potential. We are one of the largest school districts in Alberta, serving approximately 63,000 students in 118 schools located in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Chestermere and Rocky View County. CCSD was recognized as one of Alberta's Top 80 Employers for the 14th time since 2009.

We’re here for people who think and learn differently. For 40 years, we’ve provided an unparalleled environment that embraces students’ unique learning needs, while simultaneously inspiring them to achieve individual greatness. From helping students with their learning difficulties to challenging independent students to think bigger and do more than they ever have before, we have the expertise to tailor the way we teach to the way our students learn. Our holistic academic program pushes students to grow, succeed and set new goals both inside and out of the classroom. For our staff, it’s all about the kids. Our students need our teachers’ very best, so we’re passionately committed to helping them give it. We empower our staff with the skills and tools they need to support our students. We welcome new colleagues into the fold, share our resources and stand together during challenges and successes. We succeed and grow as a team, always. If you have a dedication to putting your students first, a work ethic that doesn’t quit, and a commitment to reflecting and refining your practice, then CA is the place for you. We’re looking for enthusiastic team players, lifelong learners, and people who know that a great teacher can change a student’s life forever. If you lead with your heart and believe your work must be meaningful to be rewarding, you sound like CA material.
