Update from Dr. Chris Boulter

Dear families,

Today is my last day with Tri-County Regional Centre for Education. After three years with TCRCE, I have accepted an Executive Director position with the Nova Scotia Department of Education and Early Childhood Development in Halifax.  

As of Monday, November 1, 2021, Jared Purdy will be taking over as Acting Regional Executive Director. Mr. Purdy brings more than 15 years of experience working in Nova Scotia’s public school system. He has been a classroom teacher, a teaching vice principal, and served as the principal of Yarmouth Central School for eight years. Prior to this appointment, Mr. Purdy was TCRCE’s Coordinator of Programs and Assessment (P-12) and most recently, the Director of Programs and Student Services.

I have truly enjoyed my time in TCRCE. I feel fortunate to have been part of an organization with such talented and dedicated staff who are all working toward the same goals – student well-being and achievement. I look forward to continuing to follow the great work happening throughout the region and can’t wait to see what successes comes next.

With gratitude,

Dr. Chris Boulter

Regional Executive Director
