Spring has sprung! It was great to be back in the board room last night after a break in our formal meetings since February 17.

The meeting tonight was short, but productive, and for me the theme was all about student life and opportunity.

School boards from across the province attended the 2015 Public Education Symposium this past weekend. Several trustees, including me, attended from GECDSB along with our Director of Education. The agenda was packed with many presenters and panelists. Here are some of my favourites.

February 3, 2015 was the first meeting of the Standing Committees since the new term began.

After a relaxing holiday we were back in the board room last night. The meeting was on the shorter side but productive.

Last night’s board meeting was a bit of an emotional roller coaster. For me, the themes were strength, hope, and perseverance. Here is a snapshot.
