The Waterloo Catholic District School Board (WCDSB) announces that Tyrone Dowling, Director of Education, will retire at the conclusion of his three-year term on September 1, 2025.
With over 30 years of service in Catholic education, Director Dowling has been a steadfast advocate for faith-based learning. He has served as an educator and administrator within WCDSB, as well as a superintendent with the Wellington Catholic District School Board, before assuming the role of Director. His legacy includes launching and leading the Board's Multi-Year Strategic Plan and championing initiatives that have enhanced quality, inclusivity, and faith-based education for students across the WCDSB.
As we prepare to embark on the process of selecting the next Director of Education, we are confident that the strong foundation laid by Director Dowling will continue to guide the WCDSB community forward.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, staff, and the entire WCDSB community, we thank Director Tyrone Dowling for his remarkable contributions and leadership.
We wish him every blessing as he begins this next chapter and enters retirement.
