Dear Staff and Parents/Guardians

On behalf of the Calgary Board of Education, I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude for the leadership and service that Principal Bradey Thompson has provided for the past 24 years. Specifically, I have valued Bradey’s experience, leadership and insight as he has skillfully and strategically led the entire learning community forward at Mount Royal. Bradey’s focus on our CBE value of ‘Students come first’ has always been evident to me and I wish him continued success in the future.

The CBE welcomes input from parents, students, and staff and in order to inform the selection of a new principal for Mount Royal School. I would be pleased to receive input from staff, students and parents regarding the programming and leadership attributes you value. Your voice is valued and will be shared with the new principal when appointed. An online survey will be available on the Mount Royal school website until Monday, September 4. For your convenience, the link is also provided here: Mount Royal Principal Survey. Please provide your input.

I will be interviewing candidates along with other Directors and will make a recommendation to our Acting Chief Superintendent, Gary Strother, regarding a candidate. Your feedback from the survey will be shared directly with the successful candidate to inform their entry plan as they transition into the school.

Thank you for taking time to share your feedback through the survey.

Best regards

David Dyck
Education Director, Area 7 | Well-Being
