                              Tell me and I forget.
                      Teach me and I remember.
                           Involve me and I learn.

Meet Our Team

Ms. Manca

Picture


​Ms. Manca is all about living life to the fullest, but doesn't drink coffee so she often looks a little tired.


At work, you'll find Ms. M. "in the zone." At home she's either playing with her silly little monkeys, baking, reading, or dreaming up her next tattoo. Most of her free time is spent on outdoor adventures, hikes, trail runs or road trips.

​Her library motto is "Placing the right book, in the right hands at the right time creates a reader for life." Find her on Twitter @MsMancaReads.

Mrs. Cartwright

Picture
Mrs. Cartwright enjoys trying new things and learning technology tools that enhance student learning. You can find her generally with a coffee or tea in hand and craving chocolate. She enjoys spending time with her family and friends, coaching, travelling, camping, hiking, being outdoors, and playing sports. 

Before moving to Kelowna, Mrs. Cartwright taught in North Vancouver and South Korea. She spent three years teaching abroad and travelling. She has many memories of her adventures throughout South Korea, China, Japan, and Indonesia. 

Mrs. Cartwright is very excited to be at KSS and is looking forward to connecting with many of you in the school community.

Ms. Catton

Picture

​
Ms. Catton is currently in her 9th career checking out working as the Library Assistant at KSS. Other choices or "lack of choosing" has led to things like chopping shake blocks 8hrs a day, to running an auto repair business, to teaching yoga at the Banff yoga festival. She has also worked as a CEA and Custodian for the school district. The thing that lights her up about any of these jobs is being able to help someone.

Ms Catton loves trying new things and always, always has at least 2 or 3 creative projects on the go. When she's not creating she'll be out exploring on her bicycle or gardening at her little hobbit home in Rutland.
