Dr. Mark Dolmont

Hello, my name is Mark Dolmont and I am excited to be starting as the new principal at École McTavish School.

I am originally from Nova Scotia where I was born and raised, but now consider Fort McMurray my home. I attended St. Francis Xavier University where I received both my Bachelor of Science as well as my Bachelor of Education degrees.  Following my experiences at STFX, I attended the University of New Brunswick where I obtained a master's degree. After a ten year hiatus, I have returned to school and have recently finished a Doctor of Educational Leadership from Western University. Education has always been a passion of mine and I enjoy the challenge of learning new things.

I arrived in Fort McMurray in 2008 and had taught at Father Patrick Mercredi Community High School for 9 years, as well as being the vice-principal of the Fort McMurray Islamic School and Ecole Dickinsfield. During this time I have also had the opportunity to be an instructor for the education department at Keyano College. 

My wife Julie and I are proud parents of our hilarious 6-year-old son Levi who is a ball of energy. We love living in this community and look forward to being a part of the Marauder family.

If you have any concerns please don't hesitate to contact me either through email or by scheduling a meeting. I look forward to working with the students, staff, parents, and community members involved with École McTavish School. I know this is going to be a great year!
