Charlie Mills, Middle School Teacher
Coming back to teach at Crescent as a member of the Crescent alumni has been quite an honour. After experiences in both public and private schools as a staff member, I can say without reservation that it is the warmest and most supportive environment that I have been able to teach at. -
Natalie Vera, Assistant Head of Middle School
The minute I started working at Crescent, it felt like home. From day one, the staff and the community made me feel welcome. I feel supported and safe. I know I can lean on my colleagues for support and they can do the same with me. I look around at the Crescent community and I see I am surrounded by inspiring professionals and compassionate teachers and learners. Most importantly, I look around and I see family and friends. I know I am in the perfect place. It’s home! -
Roman Arendacz, Caretaker
Working as a handyman at Crescent was my first job when I came to Canada from Poland. I was still single and Crescent was like a family to me. I spent a lot of my time here and my colleagues became friends. Crescent is part of my life here in Canada. I have seen lots of changes since I started working here in 1989; three Headmasters and several new buildings. I find working with staff a pleasure and they always ask me to do things in a pleasant way. I can tell they like me too. They are always asking about me and my family. Thank you for the opportunity to work here.
