Joyful is the  person  who finds wisdom, the one
who gains understanding.

Ms. Dwana Fifield joined the Fort McMurray Christian School staff back in 2008 when she accepted the position of grade 5/6 teacher.  Since that time, she has also taught a single grade 6 class and did some teaching at the junior high level.  While she has enjoyed all of these experiences, she is extremely excited to be teaching the grade 4 class this year.  She strongly believes that it is where God has called her to be!  She currently has eight students enrolled in her class—one more then what she started with, after a new student transferred into her class this past January.

Ms. Fifield grew up in Bonavista, Newfoundland.  She attended her local church assembly from the time she was just a baby and made a personal commitment to accept Jesus into her heart as Lord and Savior at the age of 5 years old.  A decision she has not regretted since that day!  Ms. Fifield has always had a passion for teaching children and started off doing so as a leader of a children’s program at her church.  She later went on to complete her Bachelor of Education (Primary/ Elementary) at Memorial University in Newfoundland and convocated in 2005 with a specific focus in English.  She spent one year teaching at the school she attended as a child, before making the decision to move to Fort McMurray.

Ms. Fifield strongly believes in the importance of a Christian Education and considers it a blessing to be able to talk to her students every day about the Greatness of God.  She enjoys integrating a Christian perspective into the Alberta Curriculum and helping the students realize that God is in everything—it is through Him that all things were created, to bring glory and honor to Him.    She works hard to meet the needs of individual students in her class and feels that teaching is a challenging yet very rewarding profession.
