   Frank Dunham won the competition for the position of superintendent of schools in the local district, beating out 11 other applicants. His appointment will be effective, Jan. 1, 2004. "It's really an honour to have been selected as superintendent," said Dunham. When asked about his chances on getting the job during the two-day long interview process, Dunham said, "You always have confidence in your own abilities. You just never know the outcome." Dunham was among three people shortlisted from the 12 applicants to replace outgoing superintendent, Nancy Wells, who took a job with Gold Trail school district.

   Dunham was also a principal at Ferndale, Fraserview, Christine Morrison elementary and Mission secondary. About four years ago, he made the move to the district offices as director of instruction. His time in that position only lasted about six months until he took up the post as assistant superintendent. His educational credits include years of provincial and international educational leadership experience as well as a bachelor's degree in education from UBC and a masters from the University of Victoria. As he takes on this new mantle of responsibility, Dunham addressed some local parents' complaints - especially over the past two years - about a lack of communication from administration. Dunham stated his belief that the greater the impact a decision would have, the more research and opinions he seeks out because doing otherwise makes it twice as difficult to solve a problem.
