Tsekouras is deeply committed to the personal and spiritual development of all students and staff. "I am excited to join Superior North Catholic District School Board to support student success and well-being. My previous roles and experiences have taught me the value of creating and maintaining healthy relationships, and the impact of leadership, mentorship and lifelong learning. I am passionate about our region and supporting the heart, mind and soul of students. Strong, collaborative, and professional relationships among students, staff and families are key to supporting student needs, pathway exploration and system success".
