Jack Trovato
As a public school educator in Burnaby, Jack is well acquainted with the various issues facing public education. Moreover, Jack believes it's his civic duty to draw upon his personal and professional experience to contribute to the educational community in Richmond, as a genuine way of giving back to the community, which he has called home for over 25 years.
Jack is dedicated to advocating on behalf of a first-rate, high-quality, well-funded, public education as the cornerstone of a pluralistic, egalitarian, democratic society. He is committed to educational policy and actions that allow students, teachers, parents, concerned citizens, and communities to work together to meet the needs of all learners in our public school system.
Jack holds a Bachelor of Arts from Simon Fraser University, a Bachelor of Education from the University of British Columbia, and a Master of Education in Arts Curriculum & Instruction from Simon Fraser University. He has been honoured with several academic and professional accolades, and is the 2002/2003 national recipient of the Prime Minister’s Award for Teaching Excellence.
Collaboration, inclusiveness, diligence, accountability, and hope for a better tomorrow.
