I am Lucie Desbiens and my husband Fern and I have been residents of Port Elgin for 44 years. We are proud parents of four adult children with 10 grandchildren.

My support for Catholic education is evident with my involvement as a parent, an educator and a promotor. I am fluently bilingual.

During my 15 years teaching career with the Bruce Grey Catholic District School Board, I was part of the Faith Formation Committee. I was also invited to facilitate workshops.

I volunteered at the school and helped publish the 50th anniversary yearbook and helped organize the gathering of information for the St. Joseph Parish 50th Anniversary Time Capsule.

I am a volunteer at the Huron Shores Hospice in Tiverton. I am willing to work hard as I bring the community voices to the table and help set the conditions for every student to reach their full potential.
