Minister announces school board by-elections "School boards in Districts 2 and 10 have been advised to hold by-elections on January 17, 2000," said Judy Foote, Minister of Education. The general public is entitled to vote in the zone in which they are ordinarily resident. Parents whose children are enrolled in a district where they are not ordinarily resident may vote in an election of trustees to the board in that district. Members of the general public requiring information or persons interested in nominations should contact their local school board office. The nomination period is December 18 to 23, with the final date for mailing nominations being December 22, 1999. Media contact: Nancy Healey, Director of Communications, (709) 729-0048. 4:15 p.m. |
