Welcome to RJC High School!  As Principal of RJC I have the privilege of working alongside some of the finest students, staff, and supporters of my career.  Their supportive presence combined with RJC’s mission to prepare leaders for lives of faith, service and peacemaking gives me the energy to do my job each and everyday.  What is my job? To, in turn, support students and staff as they pursue their goals. It is truly an honor to work at RJC, and to witness firsthand the difference an RJC education makes.  I hope you consider joining our supportive and vibrant school community.

Dr. Geraldine Balzer is an Associate Professor of Curriculum Studies in the College of Education at the University of Saskatchewan. Her experiences teaching Inuit students led to her interest in decolonizing pedagogies and transformative education. Her teaching focuses on ways of disrupting the hegemony of standard English and embracing the diversity of Englishes within our world, incorporating Aboriginal and postcolonial literature into secondary classrooms, and preparing teachers to be advocates of social justice.  Her research focuses on decolonization and social justice. She works with teachers to explore the use of diverse literary texts and literary theory in order to engage students in critical thinking about societal issues. She also studies International Experiential Education/Service Learning and its impact on Canadian participants and host communities in Central America. A central focus of this research is to ensure that Indigenous host communities in the Global South have voice in the development and implementation of these programs. Reciprocity is central to developing research that is not an extractive industry but is co-owned by the researchers and the communities.
