Mr. Hassan ElKadri - BOARD CHAIR

Hassan Elkadri

My wife Kamilia and I have 4 children and they are the most important part of our lives. I have lived in Calgary, AB for my whole life and love it here. I went to the University of Calgary and I am the current CEO of Liquids Matter Inc. an Analytical Laboratory company. I am a Scientist and a businessman.

My vision for the school is one that carries on what has been built so far; but also builds on it. I think we have a great school system, and it can be made better with a little effort. I am certainly for a high school, but against making a hasty decision that will negatively impact our children right before post-secondary. We need a good facility for our children to attend high school, so that we are setting them up for success.
