DURHAM CATHOLIC DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD

What is the best part of working at the company?
It was a joy to work as a Lunchroom Supervisor at my granddaughters school in Ajax.  The staff were friendly, kind and a pleasure to work with.  The students were also great.  I miss the staff and students since leaving for full time work.  I wished I could have been able to incorporate that hour into my full time work day!  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Nothing really stressful working for the school

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment and culture were great.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Typical day was working the lunch hour at the school, taking care of and enforcing the rules of the lunch hour as advised by the Principal & Vice-Principal

A typical day was arriving at the location and meeting with the supervisors, after which we would be sent onto the jobs for the day. There were 2 15 minute breaks and a 30 minute unpaid lunch. I learned much about cleaning and organizing, including training on the materials we would be using. Management was fine, sometimes hard to communicate with, but overall fair. The workplace culture was great, my coworkers and multiple supervisors were kind and supportive. The hardest part was the distance, since I was often placed in areas on the opposite side of Durham, while other groups were often placed close to home. The most enjoyable part was the feeling of success after finishing a job and my coworkers.

I enjoy helping all types of people as we all have wisdom, I love learning, and using the skills I was taught in school. I think the hardest part of the job is when someone you help dies, we are all human and because of that we have a fondness for others. the most enjoyable part of the job is taking a moment or two to talk to the people, seeing them smile or laugh.

I worked in this board as an occasional teacher for 12 years with no prospect of a permanent position.  The last school I was with was wonderful, but I had to reapply every June to be rehired on a contractual basis.  Though I love teaching, it was difficult to compete for these positions because retired teachers would come back out of retirement and take jobs from new graduates and those of us who were attempting to get a contract that could lead to a permanent job.

It's a fast paced environment, must be adaptable and flexible as an EA because sometimes there will be a schedule change and its important to help where needed.
As an administrative assistant there are many conflicting deadlines and you do what you can and adapt.
The company provides many opportunities for training.

The information technology building is a small building but it has a diverse range of friendly employees that are skilled at what they do. They have no problem taking time out of their day to teach newcomers a few new skills.

The management of DCDSB's School  was very good. The work environment was better  specially very good teamwork and friendly staff. The teacher is helpful during difficult time. They also give good advice to deal difficult time. Most of the principals are very helpful to explain the job. They also enquire how I am doing my job. Thanks every one.

Working as a supply teacher out of university allowed me to grow as a leader and feel a true purpose. I was welcomed into supportive environments of teachers and administrators who were looking out for each other and always there for support, Strongly recommend it.

This is a Wonderful, safe environment fully staffed with highly educated teaching staff. Would recommend working here. DCDSB treats everyone fairly. Students and parents can feel confident in these schools. Their kids are in good hands. Working environment is good. opportunities to grow and expand knowledge and skills.

The job responsibilities are no problem and working with the students and other teachers is very satisfying. Unfortunately, you cannot trust the Coordinator or the Principal in the Con-Ed Department.
