Education can offer experiences, opportunities and educators who can change the course of a child’s life. The impact of an education ripples throughout a person’s entire life. As a trustee I have had a voice in the governance of those opportunities and experiences, and I foster my calling to serve and support children.” Continue reading “CANDIDATE QUESTIONNAIRE – Vikki Dupuis for Wellington Catholic District School Board Trustee” →

As the husband of a teacher, and a concerned citizen, I need to help move the school board towards better supports for our students in the UGDSB.
