To The School Community,
As the holiday season approaches, I would like to take this opportunity to bring greetings from your newly elected school trustees. It is always enjoyable to begin a term at such a positive time of year and to enjoy the season and all the special events that take place in schools. Many of us plan to or already have enjoyed Christmas Concerts and all the good will they bring, thank you to staff for your extra efforts to make them possible.
As your new Board of Education, we are looking forward to carrying on with the direction established by the last Board near the end of their term to have “Coast Mountains School District become a high performance rural school district”, and we look forward to working with all educational partners to promote and enhance student learning success across all the communities in our wonderfully diverse district.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we extend best wishes for a restful and peaceful holiday season. May you, your family and friends have a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year!
Sincerely,
Art Erasmus
Board of Education Chair
