“As a trustee, I represent and identify relevant concerns of parents, students and the broader community. I can take issues to the school board table and I will continue to assist parents, students and the public with their questions or concerns.”

More specifically as a member of the school board I am involved with policy development; allocating resources through the board’s budget; promoting student achievement and well-being; school facilities and more. As a trustee, I am accountable to the public and to the Ministry of Education.
