The local French public school board's announcing a new key executive.
The Conseil scolaire public du Grand Nord de l'Ontario says Sébastien Fontaine will become director of education and board secretary in April, when Marc Gauthier retires from the dual role.
To assist with the transition, Fontaine - who is currently interim director of education for the Conseil scolaire Viamonde in southern Ontario - will actually start with the local board at the end of January, serving as associate director of education until Gauthier's retirement.
