On Tuesday I submitted my paperwork to put my name forward for a third term as trustee on the Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools Board of Education. I am proud of what we have accomplished together, and I would like to be part of continuing the good work of the past four years. I am deeply committed to serving the students, families, and staff of our school district as we strive to build on the achievements of the past term.
This term, I have served the district in a number of ways. I began the term by taking on the role of Business Committee Chair, and I have spent the final year of this term as the Chair of the Education Committee. I was also on a variety of committees, including the CUPE/Trustee Liaison committee, the Policy committee, and both the main Long-Range Facilities Planning committee and the Ladysmith Advisory sub-committee. These committees have been vital to the Board’s goal of ensuring that we are gathering meaningful feedback from our all of our partners.
This term, I’ve also been active on a provincial level. I spent 3 years as the Vice President of the Vancouver Island School Trustees’ Committee. I am now the Vancouver Island representative on the Professional Learning Committee. I have also served as a trustee representative on a provincial working group devoted to the Framework for Enhancing Student Learning (FESL). I have recently been selected to continue as a FESL sector representative and I am excited to dig further into this initiative! I will do a short series of posts next week outlining my formal campaign platform! I am grateful for the support I have received so far & I would consider it an honour to have the support of the community to be part of the next phase in the district’s growth.
