No corporate board election for NSD

For the second consecutive school board election, Northland School Division will not be electing a corporate board. “The government still hasn’t made a decision on what the actual trustee board will look like,” said Curtis Walty, NSD communications coordinator. No timeline has been set as to when that decision will be made. Since the province disbanded the corporate board in January 2010, direction to administration and final decisions remain under government-appointed special trustee Colin Kelly. However, local school board elections will be held for the 23 schools that comprise NSD. These school boards act in an advisory capacity to their local school.
