The Grand Erie District School Board is thrilled to introduce the Hall of Distinction, celebrating alum who contribute to learning, leading and inspiring in their communities. Annually, beginning in September 2026, this award will recognize graduates who use their Grand Erie education as a foundation for positive change.
