Statements

Acknowledgements 1-18(2): Courteney Lizotte, Canada’s 40 Outstanding Principals Award Recipient

Mr. Speaker, I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge Courteney Lizotte. Ms. Lizotte has been with the Range Lake North School for the past five years and has been the principal for the last two years. Earlier this year she was nominated by the PAC president of Range Lake North and has been recognized by The Learning Partnership as one of Canada's 40 Outstanding Principals this year. She's the only educator to be recognized for this acknowledgement from the NWT in 2016. She'll collect her award alongside other recipients in Toronto on February 23, 2016. We're grateful to have Ms. Lizotte within the Range Lake North School and look forward to many more years of her providing quality programming for the children within our community. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
