Occupation: Rancher

Home Community: Bjorkdale, SK (rural)

Nomination Form

My name is Mark van Haastert, my wife and I live on a cattle operation in the RM of Barrier Valley, 10 miles west of the Village of Bjorkdale, where our three children attend school.  I've lived in the Tisdale/Bjorkdale area my entire life, I attended school for K-12 in Tisdale and finished off my schooling with a diploma in agriculture at the U of S. 

For the past 10 years I've served on the school community council in Bjorkdale and this has given me multiple opportunities to have interactions with the NESD school board and I have realized how important it is to keep a good connection with all schools in the division. 

I would like the opportunity to serve on the NESD Board to help ensure that our children continue to receive a quality education.

Thanks for you consideration.
