As most of you have now realized, we have a new principal at T.E. Scott! I had a chance to ask Mr. Dekerf a few questions so we could get to know him a bit better:
Q: What schools have you worked at?
A: Colebrook, Lena Shaw, Chantrell Creek, Crescent Park, Latimer Road, Beaver Creek, and T.E. Scott
Q: What grades have you taught?
A: Grades 3,4,5,6,7 and combinations of these
Q: Have you always wanted to be a teacher/principal?
A: When I was younger, I wasn't sure what I wanted to become. At one time I thought that I may want to be a band teacher and later I thought of becoming a city planner or architect.
Q: Do you live in Surrey?
A: Yes, we live near Crescent Beach.
Q: Have you always lived in Surrey?
A: I grew up in Burnaby and later lived in Vancouver, before moving out to Surrey, 17 years ago.
Q: What activities do you like to do in your spare time?
A: Reading, running, walking, watching basketball, gardening, camping, traveling
Q: Do you have any children?
A: Yes, my wife and I have two daughters, who are aged 15 and 17.
Q: How long have you worked in Surrey?
A: I have been an educator in the Surrey School District for the past 18 years.
Q: Is there anything else that you'd like the T.E. Scott community to know about you?
A: I loved being a classroom teacher and now feel so fortunate to be the school principal at T.E. Scott.
Thanks, Mr. Dekerf!
