Strategic plans map the future of our division, and I believe in giving our administration the support and tools necessary to accomplish our goals.
Using evidence to foster excellence in teaching and learning.
Great decisions are based on facts, research, collaboration with experts in the field.
Strong budget decisions for better community outcomes.
Education budgets are an investment in our futures and being fiscally responsible is critical for a strong division.

In these challenging times it's important that we maintain the value and Canadian identity of French as a second language for our students.

Who am I?
I am a proud Glenlawn Collegiate graduate (I refuse to say what year). After graduating from the University of Manitoba with a degree in Physical Education, I spent time teaching phys-ed at Minnetonka, Hastings, Glenlawn, Niakwa Place, and Beliveau.
I transitioned to a role in administration, serving as Vice-Principal at St. George, Samuel Burland, and J.H. Bruns, and as Principal at Windsor Park Collegiate and Glenlawn Collegiate. After seven years at Glenlawn, I took the next step and became an Assistant Superintendent for Louis Riel School Division.
Throughout all my roles, I have carried a commitment to excellence and strong relationships. These strong values have guided my teaching and leadership over 47 years.
In 2022, I was elected and have proudly served my first 4 year term as an Louis Riel School Division trustee. I believe that I can continue to serve the Louis Riel School Division and promote the importance of public education in a second term as School Trustee
Proudly receiving the King CharlesKing Charles III Coronation medal in recognition of contributions to public education along side my son (and fellow P.E. teacher) Shea, grandson, and Jamie Moses (MLA for St. Vital).
