The 水果视频 School Boards Association honoured a local long-time school board trustee at their annual convention in Winnipeg last month. On March 18, Ray Kulbacki received recognition for 20 years of service as a trustee for Beautiful Plains School Division (BPSD).
When Kulbacki first ran for a position on the BPSD board of trustees, he had kids in school and now he has grandkids going to school. 鈥淚 was just interested in the kids,鈥� he noted, adding that he wanted to 鈥渟ee what all you can do for the kids鈥� and see that they get the best education.
Over the years, he said that 鈥渢here have been a lot of changes in the way education is delivered.鈥� But the changes have been good, he added. Most of the staff and people involved have changed since Kulbacki has been there as well.
The next election for school trustees will be in 2018, and Kulbacki said that he thinks he wants to be done after this term is over. He鈥檚 been at it for a long time and he added, 鈥淚 think the division is in good hands.鈥�
鈥淭here has been a lot of changes since I鈥檝e been on the board. I鈥檝e found it very interesting and I鈥檝e enjoyed it,鈥� Kulbacki concluded.
