About ME

About Mr. R

My name is Gavin Rutledge and I was born and raised in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia. After high school I went directly to Saint Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia where I completed a Bachelor of Arts; majoring in English and minoring in Psychology. From there I went to Saint Francis Xavier University and received by Bachelor of Education degree. Immediately upon my graduation in 2013 I accepted my first teaching job at Timberlea Public School and moved to my new home of Fort McMurray. I am happy to be working at the newly opened Christina Gordon Public school, where I will be teaching grade six. You will also find me heading many of the tech programs we have to offer at Christina Gordon, as we will be offering the highly regarded Tech and Trades Academy at our school. With two streams, students can choose from Pre-Engineering (Robotics, Coding, and Little Bits ) and Multimedia (Photography, Video Editing, Graphic Design, 3D modeling). You can learn more about our Tech and Trades Academy here.
