Ottawa’s largest school board under provincial supervision as new school year begins
Approximately 77,000 students and 12,000 teachers and staff head to school today for the first day of classes at the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB), as Ottawa’s largest school board remains under provincial supervision.
Robert Plamondon has been appointed supervisor of the OCDSB, and he has full authority over the board’s governance, including budgets, policies and operations. OCDSB trustees have been locked out of their email accounts and devices, and decisions normally made by the elected officials are now made by the supervisor.
In a letter to OCDSB parents, teachers and staff last week, Education Minister Paul Calandra said Plamondon has been tasked with “overseeing the financial and operational management” of the board.
罗伯特·普拉蒙登（Robert Plamondon）已被任命为渥太华卡尔顿地区教育局（OCDSB）的监督员，他对该教育局的治理拥有完全的权力，包括预算、政策和运营事务。OCDSB 的受托人已被锁定无法使用其电子邮件账户和设备，而原本由民选官员作出的决定，现在由监督员作出。
在上周发给 OCDSB 家长、教师和员工的一封信中，教育部长保罗·卡兰德拉（Paul Calandra）表示，普拉蒙登的任务是“监督该教育局的财务和运营管理”。
