Educational Assistant

Phone: 780-743-1079

My name is Aila Kellert and I’m thrilled to be working as an educational assistant in ECDP and teaching our junior high worship arts program this year.

I moved to Fort McMurray from Edmonton with my husband and two kids in 2022. This is my second year working at FMCS. I love this community!

I attended the Grant MacEwan educational assistant program in 2014, and then worked for Edmonton Public for five years. I worked specifically in specialized programs assisting with many diverse needs.

When I’m not here you’ll find me involved with the worship ministry at Fort City Church and taking jazz dance classes just for fun. I’m ready for a fun year ahead!

Division Notice

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.
