A special meeting of the Ottawa Catholic School Board (OCSB) has produced a new trustee to represent Zone 1 (West Carleton-March/Stittsville-Kanata West/Rideau- Goulbourn/Osgoode).

The position became vacant after the death of Trustee John Curry in February, 2022.

Mardi de Kemp was named to the position from a group of eight who put their names forward for the position.

Ms. de Kemp will represent Zone 1 for the remainder of the term which runs from March 29 to November 14, 2022.

She is a long-time Catholic School Board parent-volunteer and former OCSB Manager of Communications.
