June 28, 2023

Biggar Central School 2000 (BCS2000) will be welcoming a new Principal this fall when Sean Lockwood, currently Principal of Blaine Lake Composite School, takes over the position.

"Sean brings with him a very interesting career that has provided him with a lot of varied experiences," explained Sun West Director of Education Vicki Moore. "We are very happy to have him at BCS2000 and are looking forward to working with him." She added.

Mr. Lockwood grew up on a family beef farm near the town of Goderich, Ontario located on Lake Huron. He credits growing up with farm and small-town values for his love of raising and caring for animals as well as why he enjoys country living including fishing, canoeing, camping and exploring. He also grew up with baseball being his "greatest passion" played Triple A baseball and even played baseball for a small college in Michigan before deciding to pursue teaching.

Mr. Lockwood received his teaching certification from Western University in London, Ontario and then in 2003 moved to Northern Saskatchewan where he started his teaching career. He served as the Principal/Teacher in schools in Cumberland House, Beauval and La Ronge for a total of five years. Then he experienced a complete change when he spent the following three years teaching overseas in Kuwait and Pakistan at private American schools. Following this adventure, he returned to Saskatchewan as the Principal for Maymont School. He stayed in Maymont for six years before moving on to become the Principal at Blaine Lake Composite School. At Blaine Lake he worked extensively with the Muskeg Lake Cree Nation.

"With my experience and background, my goal is to make a positive contribution to Biggar Central School 2000, by working collaboratively with everyone including students, parents, school staff, Sun West SD and the community of Biggar to continue the amazing work that Biggar is very well known for; it's a real honour for me to be part of this new team," stated Mr. Lockwood.
