            Allyson Rock, originally of Canora, has joined the staff at the Preeceville School. She received her bachelor of secondary education degree from the University of Regina. She is currently taking her master’s degree. Rock did her internship at Yorkton Regional High School, teaching grades 9 to 12. She continued her career at Dr. Brass School, teaching grades 7 and 8, filling-in for a maternity leave position. Rock taught at Pelly School, splitting her time between instructing grades 4 to 12 English and teaching grade 4 to 7.

            At Preeceville School she will be responsible for splitting her time; half of her time she will be teaching social studies and the other half of her time will be spent teaching English 20 to Grade 11 students; psychology 20, live transitions, media studies 20 and art 10 to grades 10 to 12 students.

            She currently lives in Sturgis.

"I will be involved in senior girls volleyball and possibility with a few other sports," said Rock.
