Congratulations to our district’s school trustees, who were officially sworn in at the inaugural board meeting for their term on Tuesday, November 22.
The welcome and opening were generously provided by Knowledge Keeper Tsnomot (Brad) Baker of the Squamish Nation and Elder Dr. Roberta Price from the Coast Salish Territory of Snuneymuxw and Cowichan Nations. Trustees took their oaths of office and allegiance in front of family, friends, staff and special guests. Greetings were also shared by the President and Chairs of partner groups representing students, parents, principals, teachers and CUPE workers. Student violinists performed and youth from the District Student Advisory Council shared the Song for Courage, which honours transitions and was gifted to the District by Sherryl Sewepagaham, a Cree-Dene artist from the Little Red River Cree Nation.
