Grade 5/6

Hello!

My name is Liz Gillis and I am thrilled to be teaching the Grade 4/5 class at Walter and Gladys Hill this year! This is my sixth year teaching and second year as part of the WGH team.

I am originally from Newfoundland, and after high school, I made Fort McMurray my home. I received my B.Ed from Keyano College, and I am currently working towards my graduate certificate in Trauma-Sensitive Practices.

When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and volunteering in the community as a Girl Guide leader.

I am excited to be back at Walter and Gladys Hill and look forward to a fantastic year of learning!

ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th

As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.

In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.

As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
