Director of Education Deb Crawford has released her annual report, which profiles the many learning activities and initiatives for students, including faith formation and Catholic citizenship; as well as profiling the progress of new school projects and capital improvements to schools right across the district.

“I am pleased to present the Director’s Annual Report 2020-2021 to the Board of Trustees, our families and staff, and to our many parish and community partners,” says Mrs. Crawford.  “Although it seemed at times our work was consumed with COVID-19, it was not the only business of this Board.  We made noticeable advances throughout the year in meaningful learning, faith activities, new school builds and upgrades, and ongoing initiatives with community partners, as is evident throughout the pages of the report.”

Mrs. Crawford also noted that this would be her final report to the Board.  Her retirement, which she announced last March, is effective September 30, 2021. 

“As this is my last report, I want to thank the Board of Trustees for the tremendous opportunity you have given me to serve this Board, our staff, our students, their families, our parishes and our many community partners,” says Mrs. Crawford.  “I also want to thank our staff.  Working together and supporting each other, we have done tremendous work because of and in spite of COVID-19.  With our Catholic faith to guide us, we have helped to lift up our students and families, to fill them with hope and the certain belief that, with Christ as our Shepherd, we will come through this pandemic together.”The Director’s Annual Report 2020-2021 is posted to the Board website.

It will now be forwarded to the Minister of Education and shared with staff, families, parish and community partners and other publicly-funded school boards across the province.
