Doreen Dewar returns as Rainbow board's chair, Dena Morrison as vice-chair

Local school boards choose their leadership after October's trustee elections

Following October's trustee elections, local school boards have chosen the trustees who will lead the boards over the next year.

Doreen Dewar is returning as chair of the Rainbow District School Board and Dena Morrison is returning as the board's vice-chair for another year.

Both veteran trustees were acclaimed to their positions at the board's Dec. 3 meeting.

With the Sudbury Catholic District School Board, Michael Bellmore will return as board chair and Ray Desjardins as vice-chair. They were elected to their positions at the board's Dec. 4 meeting.

“I am honoured to continue to serve as the board chair for another term,” said Bellmore, in a press release.

“I am proud to sit on a board that encourages diversity, collaboration and leadership. I look forward to working with the board during this next term.”

With Conseil scolaire catholique du Nouvel-Ontario (CSCNO), André Bidal was re-elected as board president for the 2018-19 school year at the board's Nov. 29 meeting, and Roger Lemoyne as vice-president.

“I take great pride in being selected to once again represent the CSCNO,” Bidal said, in a press release.

“Our vision statement, Thriving French-language Catholic students, proud and ready to take their place in society (Des élèves épanouis fiers d’être catholiques et francophones, prêts à prendre leur place dans la société), clearly expresses our mandate and reminds us of the added value provided by a French-language Catholic education.

“With the support of a great team of trustees, I am committed to pursuing the outstanding work that has already been accomplished to ensure a high quality of education for students in all CSCNO schools.”

The local French public board, CSPGNO, has not yet issued a press release about leadership over the next year.
