​

PD is vital for Trustees so that we can be informed on new developments to education in Ontario.

My Board Table Highlights

​

During my first two years as a Trustee I served as the Board Chairperson 

​

Here are a few of the motions I moved or supported in 2020-2022:

​

• supported increased Outdoor Education

• supported enhanced masking for students

• authored motion for staff to be able to wear their own enhanced respirators (if they preferred to do so)

• co-sponsored a motion requesting a Pilot Program for the use of C02 monitors in the classroom to improve air quality

• supported the purchase of equipment to record meetings to facilitate increased accessibility of public to meetings and accountability of Trustees

• authored motion to form a Policy Review Committee to improve consultation process and review existing policies with an equity lens

• authored motion to request that all Board Meetings be recorded and the recordings be retained on the Board website for viewing and accountability

Trustee Expenses

​

I believe in fiscal responsibility and although my expenses were higher when I was Chairperson, as a Trustee I have worked to keep my expenses to a minimum.
