NLPS Statement Regarding Charges Against Teacher

Northern Lights Public Schools (NLPS) has been informed by RCMP that one of its staff has been charged with sexual assault and sexual interference.

NLPS can confirm that Janelle Arnold has been employed with the division as a teacher at Duclos School for two years. This individual is no longer at an NLPS school. Out of respect for the legal process and the privacy of those involved, we will not be commenting further at this time. 

The safety and wellbeing of our students are always our top priorities and our focus is on supporting our students and staff. We will be working closely with the school to ensure supports are available for students and staff who need them.
