About Sandy Lake First Nation

Neh gaaw saga'igan is the local translation of Sandy Lake, where the people traditionally and continues to live off the abundance of land as hunters and gatherers. Though wild game is still a staple in the diets of many, today the people of Sandy Lake enjoy games and sports such as hockey, volleyball, softball, taekwondo, golf, and other modern sports.

Located 450 km northeast of Winnipeg and 600 km northwest of Thunder Bay, we are a remote, fly-in First Nation community located in the boreal forested area of Northwestern Ontario along the Severn River. Beautiful landscapes surround our community, giving our people the opportunity for outdoor and social activities all-year-round. In the summer, we go hunting, hiking, kayaking, and fishing. In the winter, we go ice fishing, play ice hockey, and marvel at the beautiful northern lights above our open skies. Getting in and out of Sandy Lake is very convenient, with daily flights chartered by Wasaya Airways and Perimeter Aviations, from multiple cities and towns in Winnipeg and Ontario.

About the Opportunities

Currently, the Sandy Lake Board of Education has an exciting opportunity for a High School Tech-Shop Teacher to join our school in Sandy Lake, Ontario.

The successful candidate must relocate to Sandy Lake for the duration of the term, fully immersing themselves in the community to better support and inspire our students.

In this hands-on role, you will introduce students to woodworking and technical shop skills through both classroom instruction and practical learning experiences. You'll help students build confidence while developing valuable technical abilities, creativity, and safe workplace habits that will serve them throughout their lives.

The scope of your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

Teaching woodworking and technical shop skills through classroom and practical instruction
Demonstrating woodworking techniques, including cutting, shaping, assembling, and finishing wood materials
Teaching and enforcing safe work practices when using woodworking equipment, hand tools, and power tools
Supervising students during practical shop activities while maintaining a safe learning environment and maintaining shop equipment, tools, and materials while promoting responsible use of resources
Guiding students through hands-on woodworking projects while encouraging creativity and innovation
Developing students' problem-solving, critical thinking, and practical technical skills
Planning engaging lessons that balance theory with practical application and encouraging student participation, confidence, and respect within the classroom
Attending parent-teacher interviews, staff meetings, and school events
Taking part in community events and incorporating local culture into classroom learning where appropriate

About You

To qualify, you will ideally hold an Ontario Teaching Certificate.

Candidates with an equivalent teaching certificate from another Canadian province or territory, or who are currently obtaining Ontario certification, may also be considered.

You will also bring experience or strong practical knowledge in woodworking, carpentry, technical education, or another related skilled trade. Experience safely operating woodworking equipment and teaching or mentoring others in a practical setting will be highly regarded.

In addition, the following would be highly valued:

Experience teaching Technical Education, Woodworking, Construction, Industrial Arts, or a related subject
Knowledge of shop safety procedures and the safe operation of hand and power tools
The ability to foster creativity, practical problem-solving, and confidence in students
Excellent classroom management and communication skills
A collaborative, patient, and student-centred approach to teaching
Knowledge of culturally responsive teaching practices and an appreciation for Indigenous perspectives

Sandy Lake School, a First Nations community school, integrates Indigenous culture, language, and spiritual teachings, shaped by the community's values. This approach emphasizes culturally respectful religious education, differing from standard public schools in Ontario.

Knowledge of First Nations culture and experience working with Indigenous students or communities would be considered an asset.

Please note that membership and licensing with the Ontario College of Teachers, along with an updated Criminal Record and Child Abuse Registry Check, will be required for shortlisted candidates.

About the Benefits

Compensation is a competitive annual salary of $58,942.57 to $107,903.24, based on your certifications, qualifications, and experience, plus a host of excellent benefits including:

Extended health, vision, and dental coverage
Reimbursement for fly-in/fly-out travel expenses of $1500 for individuals and $2000 for families (flights are covered for September and June)
Vacation over the summer break, as well as 2 weeks vacation at Christmas and 1 week spring break vacation
Provided individual or shared housing, depending on availability
The opportunity to work within a friendly and inclusive community
Work and live in a stunning natural landscape with wildlife, northern lights, and abundant natural wonders
A vast array of community activities to get involved with including boating, canoeing, and our running club
