Tonight is the inaugural meeting between SD57’s new Board of Trustees, which includes Betty Bekkering, Trent Derrick, and Ron Polillo, along with incumbents Tim Bennett and Sharel Warrington.
The five will also vote for a chair, vice-chair, and two representatives for provincial education committees.

Members of the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation will be on hand for a ceremonial greeting and drum circle prior to the official swearing in.
Election results will also be made official for all the electoral areas (PG, Mackenzie, and the Robson Valley).
