Jill noted, "In a geographically diverse school district, I need to be present and connecting with students, teachers, support staff, parents, and community members - everyone has a role to play. I have to know people." In accepting this appointment, Jill is eager to form relationships and continue the excellent work already taking place. She looks forward to playing a pivotal role in ensuring a solid future for Gulf Islands' learners and schools.
Tisha Boulter, Board Chairperson, was impressed that "Jill referred to the Superintendent's role as the 'lead learner' in a district. I feel incredibly grateful that Jill was drawn to our ad posting and feel confident that she is the right fit to be our next Lead Learner."
