Catholic school board to hold by-election to replace Adriana LaGrange

Oct 31, 2018 | 12:46 PM

Adriana LaGrange is resigning from the Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools (RDCRS) Board of Trustees.

LaGrange won the United Conservative Party nomination for Red Deer – North over the weekend and will be running in next year’s provincial election.  

She has served as RDCRS Trustee for 11 years and has held a number of positions including the Chair and Vice-Chair.

“Maintaining RDCRS’ commitment to excellence in education, while allowing each child to reach their full God-given potential, was extremely important to me during my journey as a trustee and I always strove to put the welfare of our students first in the decisions I made,“  said LaGrange.

“We are grateful for Adriana’s significant contributions over the past 11 years as a Trustee and former Board Chair,” says current RDCRS Board Chair Anne Marie Watson. “Her experiences in our growing school division will serve her well as a candidate in the next provincial election. We will work with her over the coming weeks to transition her workload and responsibilities to other trustees.”
