Action vs. Waiting
Earlier in my career, a colleague told me that we need to read the Gospels with an understanding that in between all the miracles and signs that Jesus performed, there would also be long stretches of routine, uneventful days.
By taking a big picture view, centralizing resource creation, bringing school leaders together for support and collaboration, and understanding the unique culture of each affiliate school, we endeavor to offer relevant advice and assistance to each school leader in our association.
You want to lead a school that is recognized for its impact. But you may also feel isolated in your role as you navigate strategic priorities. That’s why we connect you to consulting and a cohort of leaders for support. Join a dynamic conversation where you can share your successes, connect with inspiring ideas and colleagues, and get support whether you’re struggling or stretching.
More than just transferring content into the minds of students, you want students to discover their place in God’s Story, to deepen their growing sense of themselves, their gifts, and their relationships to God and others, to creation and culture. Christian schools exist for students. We want to help you shine a light on professional excellence in education so that your students can experience joy and purpose in a beautiful but complex world.
There are so many things to keep on top of when it comes to school operations, administration, and governance. You don’t have to go it alone! We can provide you with manuals and policy templates that have been lawyer-vetted and are easily customizable. We make it a priority to know you and understand the unique culture of your school, providing advice and coaching as requested.
The educational landscape is constantly changing. It’s vital to stay on top of the changes. But it’s also difficult with all the other responsibilities and tasks on the go. Policy changes, court decisions, and emerging research all need noting and sifting, and you need alerting. Edvance is the ear on the ground and the voice — to you and for you — in this changing context. It’s our goal to create a broader conversation about education in Canada in partnership with you and other organizations. Together, we’ll pursue and promote Christian education for the public good.
