Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools has a 10-member Board of Education. Seven at-large trustees represent Saskatoon, and one trustee represents each of our three subdivisions: rural areas around Saskatoon, including Martensville and Warman (Subdivision 1); Humboldt (Subdivision 2); and Biggar (Subdivision 3).

One of the Saskatoon positions was left vacant after the passing of long-serving trustee Ron Boechler.
