At the Annual Organizational Meeting of the Halton District School Board, held on Wednesday, Dec. 1, 2021, trustees elected the Chair and Vice-Chair for the upcoming year. This is an annual process with the 11 HDSB trustees choosing from within their colleagues for these roles.
Trustee Margo Shuttleworth was elected as Chair for 2021-2022 and incumbent Vice-Chair Tracey Ehl Harrison was acclaimed as Vice-Chair for 2021-2022.
In her inaugural comments, Suttleworth says, “My aim is to ensure that Trustees, staff and the community continue to work together in a way that fosters respect and trust.”
“This will enable our decision making to promote the commitments of our
Multi-Year Plan in an authentic and genuine way. Our responsibility is collective and as Chair, it is important to facilitate constructive and critical conversations that lead to informed decisions we will have to make. We have all new horizons ahead and with the guidance and collaborative relationship we have created with our staff, community and students, I know Halton can continue to be seen as a leader in the Ontario public education system.”
The next Board Meeting will take place on Wednesday, Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. and following the Winter Break, the Board of Trustees will meet on Wednesday, Jan. 5, 2022. The upcoming meeting schedule is posted on the
HDSB calendar of events.
