Bonnie Alexander, SD61 Pathways & Partnerships- Career Education Coordinator

When students meet people from a wide range of careers, their aspirations expand—because kids can’t dream of what they’ve never seen. The SD61 Pathways & Partnerships team is dedicated to bringing career exploration to life through engaging, hands-on opportunities. From sponsoring the PowerPlay Young Entrepreneur program to creating Career Explorer Workbooks aligned with BC’s curriculum, we’re helping students imagine their future pathways.

Today’s world of work needs empathetic, innovative, and collaborative thinkers. By supporting Maker Centres in libraries and Glowforges in middle schools, we’re equipping teachers with the tools to inspire creativity and real-world problem-solving in every classroom.
