New Superintendent Appointed

mpamer1.jpgThe Board of Education for the Richmond School District is pleased to announce the appointment of Ms. Monica Pamer as its new Superintendent effective January 1, 2010.

Ms. Pamer was appointed unanimously by the Board after an extensive search process that involved all District stakeholders in developing the criteria for selection, shortlisting candidates, interviewing the shortlisted candidates and providing commentary on the merits of each candidate.  The Board then made its selection with the benefit of this wide range of perspectives and opinions.

Ms. Pamer has served as the Associate Superintendent for the Richmond School District since 2003, interrupted by a three-year secondment to the Ministry of Education as Lead Director, Achievement and Assessment.  Previously, Ms Pamer has been a classroom teacher, Learning Assistance teacher, Teacher Consultant, Curriculum Coordinator, secondary Vice Principal, secondary Principal and Assistant Superintendent in the Richmond School District over a career that began in 1975.

Ms. Pamer has served as a speaker and presenter on educational leadership, assessment and a variety of other topics across the province.  As a member of the executive team at the Ministry of Education she has had the opportunity to become familiar with programs and procedures in school districts across BC.   She brings a broad perspective gained from the opportunities she has had to work in public education at the provincial and local levels.

Ms. Pamer offers a wide range of experiences and expertise to the position of Superintendent at a challenging period in the District's history that will enable her to provide both stability and innovation.  She is looking forward to serving the Richmond School District in her new role.
