The Waldorf Education Society of Edmonton (WESE) is holding its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in the WISE gymnasium, beginning promptly at 7 pm on Wednesday, November 20th, 2024. The AGM includes presentation of the society’s financial reports, committee reports, election of new board members and amendments to the bylaws. We invite all of our members to join us for this important event.
In preparation for the AGM, we are currently recruiting nominations for new board members. If you wish to join the board or nominate someone as a board member, please submit nominations, or your application form, to boarddevelopment@wese.ca. The nomination process is open, and closes on October 30th, 2024. Nominees will be required to complete an application that will be reviewed by the nominations committee. The new board members will be officially voted in during the AGM. Questions about the nominating and voting process can be sent to boarddevelopment@wese.ca.
WESE is a separate society from the WISE Charter Society. WESE is the society board that operates the Early childhood programs, and owns and manages the school building and land.
WESE Board members meet monthly on the 3rd Thursday from 5:45 pm to 6:45 pm, along with three additional meetings per year with the WISE Charter School board, WESE and WISE Full Faculty and administration and commitments to Stakeholder events . Each Board member generally participates and/or chairs a committee. Committees include areas such as finance, site development, welcome & gratitude, and growth & development. Committees serve an essential role in the operations and leadership of our accessible school and other programs.
The positions up for election this year are:
- President (2 year Term)
- Vice-President (2 year Term)
- Treasurer (2 year Term)
- Secretary (2 year Term)
- Director (2 year Term)
