As a former student of Montroyal Elementary and Handsworth Secondary Schools and a current parent of children at Ross Road Elementary and Argyle Secondary, I understand both ends of our school system.
My experience:
- School leadership: PAC Chair and school planning committee member at Ross Road for the last three years. I got to know the strengths and challenges of our school and focused on community building to increase school connections for every family.
- NVSD involvement: Provided input on NVSD’s next 10-year strategic plan at multiple community stakeholder events and attended NVPAC and board meetings to gain insight and share information.
- Community experience: Trustee for North Vancouver District Public Library, President of Lynn Valley Parent Participation Preschool, and 2018 winner of the Good Neighbour Award
As school trustee, I would advocate for students and program enhancements to strengthen learning outcomes at all schools.
