Chapman has 17 years of education experience and holds a Master of Education degree in leadership and administration. He has been a counsellor and taught physical education and athletics at Salmon Arm Secondary School’s Jackson Campus.
Miller has been with SD 53 since 2008 in roles as acting principal at Tuc-el-Nuit Elementary School, vice principal at Oliver Elementary School and a teacher at South Okanagan Secondary School.
Also announced was that Diane Haddow is taking a position as vice principal at Oliver Elementary School. She has been a teacher at Summerland Middle School in French immersion and learning assistance.
The appointments are effective as of Aug. 1.
