the next school Year for StFX.
Jeff Orr, Dean of Education at StFX, said this will make the ninth time X will offer a part time
education program. He said the programs originally began for Mik’maq communities. He said the department was approached by centres of education, formerly school boards, to fill a need following a wave of shortages in teachers and substitutes. Orr said they are planning on hosting the program in-class but they have to be ready to pivot to online.
