Superintendent Recruitment
The Board of Trustees has put in place a Superintendent recruitment plan, which includes creating an ad-hoc committee. The committee will be formed in January.
At the November meeting, The HFCRD Board of Trustees accepted Superintendent Betty Turpin’s Notice of Retirement for August 28th, 2025.
Election Bylaw Passed
Second and Third Reading for an Election Bylaw was passed.
It states that every nomination of a candidate for the office of trustee must be accompanied with a criminal record check issued no earlier than 30 calendar days prior to the date the nomination is submitted.
The Board waives the Office Space Fee for the Archdiocese
The Board voted to waive the rental fee for the Archdiocese office space for 2024-2025 and will revisit the agreement in December 2025.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board has been gifting the rental of the office space in the lower level of the Catholic Conference Centre.
The Board of Trustees will read This Place
After completing “Valley of the Birdtail” this past year, the Board will continue on the path of Professional Development with a new book study on the book called "This Place."
It aligns with the Area of Emphasis stating that “The Board will continue their journey through Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action.”
International School Trip
The board approved in principle a Senior High Trip to The Alps & The Mediterranean Coast for Glenmary Senior High Students during Spring Break of 2026.
The trip will be through Education First, a company that plans tours for students that are “designed to increase awareness of global perspectives, foster appreciation for different cultures, and see curriculum come to life.”
The cost will be covered individually or through parent/guardian private fundraising.
A similar trip for 2025 has been cancelled due to low numbers & fundraising.
