L.V Rogers Secondary school will have a new principal in the fall in Ian Cooper.
Cooper will also serve as principal for School District 8’s REACH program. He steps into both rolls on August 1.
“I’m very pleased that Mr. Cooper will join SD8 to lead a team of excellent educators and support staff at L.V. Rogers for the coming school year. I know that his commitment to bringing out the best in others will serve students, educators, and the community very well,” said School District 8 Superintendent Trish Smillie in a press release.
Cooper has more than 15 years of experience teaching in K-12 classrooms. He spent three years as principal in Castlegar at Stanley Humphries Secondary and another four years as vice-principal at both elementary and secondary levels.
He says he feels honoured to join the team at SD8 and the L.V. Rogers community.
“By fostering strong relationships with students, staff, and families, and collaborating as a team, I plan to build on the school’s tradition of inclusivity and academic excellence for every learner.”
Current L.V. Rogers Principal Dan Rude will continue to lead the school for the remainder of the 2024-2025 school year.
