My name is Matthew Shewchuk, and I am excited to be back at Walter and Gladys Hill for the 2025-26 school year!

I was born and raised in Fort McMurray, and I have worked with the Fort McMurray Public School Division school division for 11 years. I have taught from grade 2 to 12, and I have worked in various division office coordinator roles. I completed my Master of Education degree from Memorial University of Newfoundland, and I also hold a Bachelor of Education and a Graduate Certificate in School Leadership from the University of Alberta. I am working on my Doctor of Education at Western University with a focus on equity and belonging, and I also am a instructor with the University of Alberta. 

My priority for the 2025-26 school year is to continue to lead Walter and Gladys Hill through empowering staff, students, and our families to be active participants in shaping our school and to continue to provide meaningful and authentic learning experiences for all.

If you have any questions or I can be of assistance, please send an email at Matthew.Shewchuk@fmpsd.ab.ca. I look forward to a great school year!
