Engage
In alignment with our Mission to inspire excellence through meaningful relationships, innovation, and collaboration, we invite our stakeholders into a dialogue about what's most important in Livingstone Range School Division.
Within our pillars of Academics, Culture, and Leadership, we want to know from staff, students, parents, and the community what we're doing well, where we can improve, and what matters most when setting budget priorities.
Below is a list of recent stakeholder engagements.
April 11-May 2, 2025
The Livingstone Range School Division Board of Trustees has engaged Leaders Executive Search as our partner in the recruitment of our next Superintendent. While most of the qualifications for Superintendents in Alberta are outlined in the Education Act, we want to hear from parents, students, staff, and community members of LRSD about what matters to you.
Your insights will provide valuable context for assessing potential candidates' skills and experiences through the course of this search.
Leaders Executive Search has prepared a brief survey to gather your input. You will not be asked to identify yourself and your responses will be anonymously collected externally by the team at Leaders Executive Search.
The survey takes approximately 5-10 minutes and will remain open until May 2, 2025. Thank you in advance for your time.
