In under one year the public school board is back to the selection process for a new superintendent. Dr. Cindi Vaselenak, originally from Alberta, started the job last August from then outgoing superintendent Ed Lippert.

YK1 school board Chair Terry Brookes told Yellowknifer, SA国际影视传媒淚 feel bad weSA国际影视传媒檙e losing her. She was highly educated and qualified for this role.SA国际影视传媒

Brookes noted Vaselenak had won numerous awards for her previous work as a superintendent in Alberta before moving north last year.

SA国际影视传媒淲e have at least eight candidates but I canSA国际影视传媒檛 comment further on that,SA国际影视传媒 said Brookes, on the new recruitment process.

Yellowknifer reached out to other school board trustee members, who didnSA国际影视传媒檛 want to comment further, except to say they they believed the superintendent was leaving due to a death in her family.

SA国际影视传媒淔amily comes first, my wife is in British Columbia with her mother who is ill right now,SA国际影视传媒 said Brookes, affirming the challenges of having family members down south.

The deadline for applications for the next superintendent of YK1 is June 8, 2022.

A communications officer with YK1 will be following up with more information later.

SA国际影视传媒淭he Board of Trustees invites applications for the position of Superintendent of Schools/CEO for Yellowknife Education District No. 1. Preferred start date is August 1, 2022 however the Board will consider a later start date to be mutually agreed with the successful candidate,SA国际影视传媒 the school boardSA国际影视传媒檚 website states.

YK1 also has a trustee seat to fill after Diana Neill, who was elected to the board last fall, was asked to resign by her then employer, the Government of the Northwest Territories. Neill was a speech pathologist and therapist with Stanton Territorial Hospital. She said she has since started a private practice and did not take up the role of YK1 board member.
