Message From Our Trustee
Message From Our Trustee
Welcome back. I hope everyone is feeling refreshed following
the winter break, and that you had a happy and safe holiday season. While the
weather may be colder, I also hope that you had time to enjoy this beautiful
season in Ontario.
It is my honour to serve as your school board trustee and to
uphold the values
of York Region District School Board. The new Board of Trustees
was sworn in on December 3, following the October municipal elections.
Together, we look forward to moving forward the four priorities outlined in the
Trustees’
Multi-Year Strategic Plan:
- Foster
well-being and mental health
- Build
collaborative relationships
- Champion
equity and inclusivity
- Empower
ethical leadership
There are a lot of exciting things happening in our schools
and classrooms to foster and support student well-being and mental health. Ask
your child what’s happening in their school, and how they take care of
themselves. As adults, we often focus on the health and well-being of the
children in our lives, but it’s also essential that we take care of ourselves.
Taking time to do the things we enjoy and nurture our own health is also
important and helps to model a healthy and active lifestyle for our children.
An important part of my role as a trustee is to listen, and I look forward to connecting with members of our school community in the coming weeks and months. We will continue working to build collaborative relationships with our communities and to keep you informed about the things happening in the school board. I wish you all the best as we enter 2019.
Juanita Nathan
Board Vice-Chair
Trustee – Markham Wards 2, 3 and 6
