Michele Thoms
Administrator - Assistant Principal
I arrived in Yellowknife from Newfoundland in 1991, intending to stay for just two years, like many others. I’m happy to say I didn’t stick to that plan! As a Core French teacher, I dedicated 27 years to teaching at École St Patrick High School (ÉSPHS), and spent three more years as the Assistant Principal. I take great pride in having been the teacher-advisor for the ÉSPHS Students Against Drinking and Driving (SADD) for 27 years. Five years ago, I joined École St. Joseph School as an Assistant Principal, and I immediately fell in love with the kids. Currently, I am proud to lead our Husky Helpers program. I will be retiring in June 2026 and returning to Newfoundland after what has been a deeply rewarding “two years” in the North.
