Seven trustees were sworn into the Abbotsford Board of Education on November 3 for the 2026–2030 term. Rhonda Pauls was chosen as chair, with Arsh Kaler serving as vice-chair.
The other trustees are Tanya Coghill, Freddy Latham, Eric Nyvall, Mike Rauch and Shannon Rose. The board helps guide a school district serving more than 20,000 students across 46 schools.
For families, trustee decisions help shape district priorities, resources and the direction of public education. The district says its 2024–2028 strategic plan remains a foundation for the board’s work.
