Rebecca Epp

K-1-2 Teacher

My name is Rebecca Epp and I have been teaching at Kenaston School in grades K/1/2 for more than 10 years. If you were to look back at my school memories book that started when I was in Kindergarten, you would notice that I have always wanted to be a Kindergarten teacher. So, I guess you could say that I have my dream job. I am an avid reader and will usually be found with a book in my hands in my spare time. My absolute happy place is at the lake - camping, swimming, paddle-boarding, hiking, bike riding and of course reading. My husband and I have been married for a few years now. Between us we have 6 children, one of whom is married and has 2 little boys. At the school I can be found working canteens for tournaments, planning the annual Terry Fox walk, planning graduation, and helping in any way that I can.

Jaimes Weber

Grade 1-2 & Sask DLC Teacher

Jaimes returns to Kenaston School with a role both with the (new) Sask DLC as well as some time teaching Gr 1-2 with Mrs. Epp. 

Nicole Duley

Grade 3-4 Teacher

Hi! My name is Mrs. Duley. I was born and raised in Swift Current, where most of my family still resides. My husband and I live in Saskatoon and have a cat named Luna. I commute each day, as I love working in this wonderful community and school.
            One thing about myself is that I love learning! I have received a Biology Degree and an Education Degree at the U of S. I am always searching for professional development opportunities, so I can continue to grow and learn in this profession. I have taught in Kenaston since the beginning of my teaching career. I love and value my job so much. When I am not teaching or planning, I enjoy playing/coaching basketball and volleyball, travelling, being outside, camping, and spending time with my family and friends.
            Lastly, I want to assure you that I will always have your child’s strengths, needs, and interests in mind as I plan and teach. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or successes to share with me at any time! I value open communication and I am excited to work alongside you this school year.

Shannon Libke

My name is Shannon Libke and I've taught here at Kenaston School for more than 20 years! 
I like to spend my time thinking of fun activities for our school community and students to do. With the support of the Student Leadership Team, we plan the school dress up days, gym activities, scavenger hunts, and all sorts of other goofy fun. I also do morning announcements and enjoy sharing the photos our students and families share with me so as a school we can appreciate how our Kodiaks Find the Good.
