Today is voting day for the by-election for Ward 4 within Mountain View School Division.
Residents of the City of Dauphin head to the polls at the Dauphin Friendship Centre between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
Jarri Thompson is the current vice-chair of the board. She says every ballot cast helps shape the future of our schools.
"Especially when it comes to ensuring that our young people are represented, supported, and heard," said Thompson. "As a trustee, I see every day how important community participation is. When we show up, we make our schools stronger, more responsive, and more reflective to the families we serve."
Carter Taylor-Luke, Sonja Blank, Michelle Smigelski, Rigby Devos, and Valerie McInnes are vying for one spot.
"If you're able to, please take a few minutes out of your day to vote," ended Thompson. "Your vote is your voice and it truly makes a difference."
The by-election comes after the passing of trustee John Taylor earlier this year.
