The nine trustees who govern our division are responsible and dedicated to the delivery of fair and equal public education within Sunrise.

Their areas of responsibility include educational accountability, fiscal responsibility, community leadership, accountability to the provincial government and the community, appointment of senior administration and board succession planning.

The Board is a unified body and, as the leader of the school division, encourages and strengthens the school division in its goal of student achievement and success. They identify, support and represent values that reflect the best hopes and aspirations of the community.

Board Priorities

The Board Strategic Plan represents Sunrise’s commitment to our purpose, mission and values. We developed this plan based on discussions with stakeholders and review it annually. It keeps our Board focused on their priorities.

1. Within the Educational domain, the Board has chosen Literacy and Numeracy as their specific

areas of focus.

2. Within the Social-Emotional domain, the Board will be focused on Mental Health and

Well-Being.

3. Within the Relational domain, the Board has chosen to focus on Community and Cultural

connections.
