The Mountainview School Division announced Monday the departure of Superintendent Stephen Jaddock, effective immediately.
No reason was given for Jaddock's departure.
CKDM News Now reached out to the School Division for comment, with School Board Chair Gabe Mercier responding by email with the following statement
"Out of respect for Mr. Jaddock's privacy and in keeping with our commitment to confidentiality, the Board of Trustees will not be providing further details on his departure. We can confirm that our focus remains on ensuring a smooth transition and continuing to provide a high-quality education to our students."
CBC however is reporting this morning that Mercier told them that Jaddock was removed because he proposed a change to his salary, and that his contract was ending at the end of June.
CKDM has also learned that three trustees - Leifa Misko, Scott McCallum, and Floyd Martens - resigned from the school board on Monday.
The search for a new Superintendent and CEO will begin immediately.
