Living Sky School Board announces new director of education
The Living Sky School Division has hired a new director of education, effective for the next school year.
David Hutchinson will replace current director Randy Fox when he retires at the end of August. According to board chair Ken Arsenault, the school division hired a consultant to find the best candidate possible.
“We went through a day long process identifying the most desirable traits we wanted for the school division, and we came up with seven or eight categories we wanted the candidate to have experience in,” Arsenault said.
He said some of those categories included past work as a principal, experience as a superintendent or senior administrator in a central office, an understanding of the education sector plan in Saskatchewan, understanding how budgets work, as well as experience with First Nations students.
