The Delta School Board has a new chairperson.
At school board’s inaugural meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 5, trustees elected Joe Muego to serve as chair of the seven-member board for the upcoming year.
First elected to the school board in the 2022 municipal election, Muego had served as vice-chairperson last year.
The school district notes that Muego, an architect by profession, is passionate about fostering connected educational environments that prepare students to meaningfully contribute to their communities.
He had served in many executive parent advisor committee (PAC) positions over 14 years. His service carried over to the Delta District PAC where he sat as vice-chair and ultimately chair.
He now replaces trustee Val Windsor as chair of the Delta School board, but Windsor will serve as vice-chair for the upcoming year.
First elected to the school board 2011, Windsor, a former teacher and Delta Teachers’ Association (DTA) president, had served as board chair since 2019.
