NOTICE
MUNICIPALITY OF
HURON EAST
By Stew Slater
Special to The Citizen
Though the circumstances
surrounding their appointments are
different, new superintendents of
education will be in place in
September for both the Avon
Maitland District School Board and
the Huron-Perth Catholic District
School Board.
In the Avon Maitland board,
current superintendent (Operations)
Barry Wagner is returning to the
London-based Thames Valley
District School Board to accept a
superintendent’s position there.
Wagner came to Seaforth two years
ago from a position of lesser
seniority in the Thames Valley
board.
“The search is already on,” to find
a replacement for Wagner, said Avon
Maitland communications manager
Steve Howe. Trustees accepted the
outgoing superintendent’s
resignation at their meeting Tuesday,
June 28, and chair Meg Westley
noted the potential of a special
meeting some time over the summer
to approve his replacement.
In Dublin, desks will be moving
over the summer in the
administrative offices of the Huron-
Perth Catholic board, to make way
for an additional person in the top-
level management team. At a regular
meeting Monday, June 27. trustees
approved the appointment of former
Stratford St. Michael principal Dan
Parr as superintendent of education
with responsibility for secondary
schools.
“What we needed was a little more
support in terms of secondary
curriculum,” explained board chair
Bernard Murray. “It was a lot for
Martha (Dutrizac, the board’s sole
current superintendent of education)
to handle, with both elementary and
secondary.”
Parr left a principal’s job more
than a year ago to take control of the
board’s share of a special provincial
funding program then labelled
“Students at Risk.” It has since been
renamed “Student Success.”
At a meeting earlier in June, he
assisted in a presentation about one
of the key programs created under
that initiative: an off-site storefront
satellite of St. Michael in downtown
Stratford, serving either drop-cuts or
potential drop-outs who have trouble
achieving in a regular school
environment.
“He’s certainly a well-qualified
individual,” said Murray, who noted
the board was required to advertise
the new superintendent position, and
was quite happy when Parr applied.
“He’s done a fine job with/ that
alternative education program and
with the whole Student Success
initiative.”
