Jaiya Joseph of St. Ignatius and St. Patrick classmates Felicity King and Andrew Tassone are serving one-year terms with the Thunder Bay Catholic District School Board.
THUNDER BAY — As the 2023-24 school year enters its second month, the student trustees for the Thunder Bay Catholic District School board have been keeping busy.
“It’s been a really good opportunity to meet the other student trustees and also gain a better understanding of what it’s like to be in that role.” King, who is the Indigenous student trustee, admitted that she was a little scared to submit her application for the position earlier this year. “I think the first big thing from that experience was the fact that we are all travelling on our own, which is pretty cool that we go to be more independent during those events,” Joseph said.
“I definitely feel like I’ve become a better person being in this position and I think a lot of that has to do with the responsibility that you have in this role,” King said.
