Chair, Dr. Bruce Pettigrew, flanked by Vice Chair Bev LaPeare and Superintendent Greg Bass.

Dr. Bruce Pettigrew will continue to serve as Chair of Rocky View Schools Board of Trustees after he was re-elected by acclimation at the Board's organizational meeting this afternoon. 

After considerable debate, the Board voted to split the position of Vice Chair between two trustees, Bev LaPeare and Helen Clease, with each serving for half of the term. 

Appointments of Trustees to 23 committees were also determined at this afternoon's meeting. Trustees may serve on these committees - everything from audit to labour relations - either as delegates with decision making authority, or as observers or representatives. 

The Rocky View Schools Board of Trustees is responsible for the education of over 17,000 students in Rocky View County. For more information, visit the Rocky View Schools Board of Trustees website - trustees.rockyview.ab.ca./
