Kendra McInnis
Teachers - High School
Key Roles
This will be my fourth year at Spruce View and I am so excited to be returning for the 2023/2024 school year! This year I will be teaching English 10-12 alongside Cosmetology, CALM, and a few other CTS and CTF courses. I am also the Indigenous Education (Inclusive Education) Lead for our school for the third year now.
I was born and raised on a farm south of Viking, AB, and completed my Bachelor of Arts in English at the University of Lethbridge after high school. After I graduated from the U of L, I worked for the Y.E.S! Program and various support worker positions and substitute EA roles. I went to the University of Calgary in 2018 to finish my Bachelor of Education with distinction. I am also a professional makeup artist, specializing in wedding & photoshoot makeup, so I am very excited to incorporate this experience into my Cosmetology course.
My husband and I have a blind Great Dane, Moose, a Golden Retriever, a Sage, and a rescue hedgehog named Boo. I enjoy spending time kayaking, hiking & camping with my husband in the summers and in the winter months, I enjoy reading, tending to my many houseplants, and working out.
I can’t wait to see old students and meet new ones as we embark on a wonderful school year!
