Trustee Road Show
The Board of Trustees agreed unanimously to take their meetings on the road in order to reach out and hear from the communities served by ECSRD. This initiative supports the new Minister of Education’s vision of increased public engagement. In addition to meeting parents and other school supporters, the Trustees’ goal for holding Board meetings at schools is to provide opportunities for Evergreen stakeholders to have active input and to gain their help in creating a strong voice for parents and communities.
During a time of educational transformation, this is an opportunity for Trustees to gain information from parents regarding what they see as educational priorities. Discussion topics may include learning priorities for 21st Century learners and the role of social media in education.
The first travelling Board meeting will occur in Westlock on February 13, 2012. The regular Board meeting will take place from 4:00 – 5:30 PM and be open to the public. Hospitality begins in the St. Mary School Library at 6:30 PM and the trustees will hold a public engagement forum from 7:00 ‐ 8:00 PM open to the entire community.
Board meetings are always open to the public and typically held on the second Monday of each month at the Division Office upstairs at Holy Trinity Church in Spruce Grove beginning at 3:00 PM. The Trustees are looking forward to meeting with you in your community.
