Re-elect Chris Ellis Trustee Ottawa-Carleton District School Board

Hard to believe it has been four years but here I am seeking re-election for Public School Trustee for Zone 6 Rideau-Rockcliffe and Alta Vista. Although I came into the position as trustee with a good knowledge of the school board, I have learned a lot about how things work these past four years. I will take the lessons learned to be an even more effective advocate for high quality public education in my zone and throughout the public school board.

I believe I have been a positive influence for students and the community. I hope you think so too, and will vote for me Monday, October 22, 2018.

Highlights

Meeting Hosted by Uniting for Children and Youth

Uniting for Children and Youth meeting Sat. June 9, 2018.

Want to thank Uniting for Children and Youth (UCY) for organizing a great meeting focused on education last Sat. June 9, 2018.

Inviting trustees and trustee candidates from both English boards gave us a great chance to talk together. The workshop for the trustees and trustee candidates was to find consensus on top priorities.

Participating trustees and trustee candidates from both English boards

All participant session at Uniting for Children and Youth meeting Sat. June 9, 2018.

The break between sessions of the whole group provided for a wide ranging discussion on many issues.

In the second half, the opportunity to meet with participants from the area of the city of the trustees and trustee candidates was very grounding. Heard many concerns at the grassroots level.
I'm still reflecting on what I heard and will be a better trustee with the information that was shared.
