About me
Mohammad was born in northwest Iran to a family of five in a region called Balouve, meaning "land above water." At twenty, he fled to Turkey, becoming a refugee for two years before arriving in Canada as a landed immigrant in October 1988. Mohammad enrolled in English classes at Isaac Newton School, later completing his grade 12 equivalency at Winnipeg Adult Education Center. He earned a science degree in 1995 and pursued an after-degree education program at the University of Winnipeg and the University of Manitoba. Mohammad began teaching in a rural town in southwestern Manitoba, later joining the staff at Gordon Bell High School in 1999. In 2010, he embarked on his vice-principal journey, serving in two communities before being appointed principal at Isaac Newton, the same school where he learned English. After five years, he was appointed and currently serves as Assistant Superintendent of Anti-Racism, Equity, and Climate Justice in the Winnipeg School Division.
