Press Release
The Northwest Catholic District School Board is pleased to announce the appointment of Brendan Hyatt to the position of Director of Education and secretary to the board, effective Sept. 1.
Hyatt succeeds Rick Boisvert, who retires this year following a highly-successful term as board director.
Hyatt brings to his new position an impressive range of qualifications, accompanied by a wealth of experience.
He has served the Northwest Catholic District School Board for 16 years in the capacity of principal, student success lead, and superintendent of education.
Hyatt is a highly-dedicated Catholic educator, with a clear vision for the continued growth, development, and success of the Northwest Catholic District School Board.
Moreover, he has the knowledge, leadership skill, personal qualities and characteristics, and successful administrative background to ensure this vision is translated into daily practice in the schools and classrooms served by the board.
His leadership also extends beyond the field of education, and into his church and numerous community service organizations.
He has a reputation for innovation and as a leader with a strong commitment to partnership, both within the board and the broader local and regional community.
Hyatt demonstrates an unshakeable commitment to Catholic education, and will continue to support the board’s Mission and Vision, as well as to support and enhance the tri-lateral relationship between home, church, and school.
According to Hyatt, education in a Catholic system supports each student spiritually, academically, socially, physically, and emotionally as children of God, and that everything we do must be Christ-centered.
It is important as Catholic educators that we are witness to our faith and look for the face of God every day in the children that we are called to serve, he adds.
