Students at Rosenort School return to class Monday not knowing who their principal will be.

The school's principal, Linda Strachan died suddenly last week at the age of 52. 

 

Kelly Barkman is superintendent of the Red River Valley School Division. 

 

Barkman says he will remember Strachan as someone who worked hard for the community of Rosenort and someone who was well liked. 

 

Barkman says he will name an interim principal prior to the start of classes Monday. 

 

A memorial service for Strachan is being planned for Saturday afternoon at Willowlake Baptist Church in Winnipeg.
