A 91原创 business owner who appeared on CBC鈥檚 Dragon鈥檚 Den is running for a spot as a 91原创 school trustee.
Brent Larsen, a Murrayville resident, said is passionate about trades in local schools.
鈥淧art of my vision is introducing children to these trades, and hopefully find new passions and skills they didn鈥檛 even know they had,鈥� Larsen wrote in a press release announcing his candidacy.鈥�
He suggested exposing students to wood and metalworking, electronics, and robotics as early as Grade 3.
To deal with overcrowding issues in some 91原创 schools, Larsen would like to see schools built higher on the same amount of land.
Larsen appeared on Dragon鈥檚 Den in 2011, and several hosts bid on his flax seed business, Omega Crunch.
