Alexander Henry Skene has a long history of accomplishments. In 1910 he left his hometown in Scotland to come to Sudbury where he worked as general manager of the Wahnapitae Power Company and later, as district superintendent of the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Commission. During his many years in Sudbury, Mr. Skene also served as a member of the Sudbury Public School Board. Today, Alexander Public School is named after him in recognition of his service to local education.

“A Tradition of Excellence” continues at Alexander Public School.
