2011 School Trustee Election - Candidate Information

On Saturday, November 19th ... Vote for your school board

A new school board representing the people of North Vancouver will be elected on Saturday, November 19th. There are 12 candidates running, 7 for the 3 positions representing the City of North Vancouver and 5 for the 4 positions representing the District of North Vancouver.

To help parents understand and evaluate the candidates, North Van Pac sent 20 questions to each of the candidates prior to our All-Candidates meeting and gave each of them the opportunity to answer some of the questions at the meeting and to submit written comments for our website. The questions were derived from the main themes in last years parent survey along with a need to reflect current district events.

Below you will find links to the questions we asked of the candidates and each of the candidates responses as they were sent to us. We hope you find this information useful as you prepare to vote.
