EASTERN TOWNSHIPS SCHOOL BOARD APPOINTS A NEW ASSISTANT DIRECTOR GENERAL AND A NEW DIRECTOR OF FINANCE

Magog, December 4, 2013 – The Council of Commissioners and the Director General of the Eastern Townships School Board (ETSB) are pleased to announce the nominations of Ms. Kandy Mackey as Assistant Director General and Director of Pedagogical Services, and Ms. Sophie Leduc, as the new Director of Financial Services, both effective December 4, 2013. 

Magog, November 27, 2013 – The Council of Commissioners of the Eastern Townships School Board (ETSB) are pleased to announce the nomination of  Mr. André Turcotte to the position of Director General, effective December 2, 2013.

Mr. Turcotte joined the ETSB in November 2008 as Director of Finance and was promoted to the position of Assistant Director General in 2012. He has ably demonstrated his leadership and administrative skills in both these roles.“With the recent launch of our Strategic Plan for 2013-2018, we wanted to assure a smooth and seamless transition in leadership. The promotion of Mr. Turcotte to the position of Director General was a logical choice and will allow for this transition and continuity.  His strong background in finance and management will be a definite asset for the school board. During his five years with the ETSB, Mr. Turcotte has demonstrated his ability to work effectively with the senior management team and the council of commissioners. We look forward to continuing to work with Mr. Turcotte in his new role,” said Michael Murray.

Mr. Turcotte’s career in education spans 23 years and includes 10 years as a classroom teacher, 2 years as a centre director for vocational training and 12 years in senior school board management as Secretary General and Director of Finance. This experience will be an asset as he takes on the role of pedagogical leader for the school board and his commitment to student success will only enhance the strong senior management team he will be leading.
