Rupertites question methods used to assess home valuesBy Quinn BenderThe NorTherN coNNecTor
PRINCE RUPERT - Following BC Assess-ment’s assertion early January that properties would see a modest in-crease of three to seven per cent this year, some Prince Rupert residents were shocked to discov-er the actual numbers when they arrived in the mail.
“Ours went up $50,000!” wrote Janis Alexander-Gray on The Northern View’s Face-book page.
“I thought it was a typo.”
“We could never sell our house for what its assessed at,” read anoth-er post.
As complaints filed in to social media sites, a number of Prince Ru-pert residents, who
claim their properties underwent no improve-ments in the past year, simply wanted to know why their property’s as-sessment spiked upward of 25 per cent — a dol-lar figure ranging from $30,000 to $60,000. Prince Rupert Blvd resi-dent France Powell saw her property jump 26 per cent.
“I understand why properties are going up in value and I’m happy to pay taxes for things like schools — that’s my duty and I’m happy to pay for community ser-vices. But when I’m pre-sented with such a steep increase, I would like to know why.”
Powell says she re-furbished her front steps last year, but has done no other home improve-ments. Comparable homes in Prince Rupert
saw similar increases, but on Powell’s street the only home that sold last year did so for 16 per cent less of its as-sessed value.
“I have done noth-ing to the building that would justify this as-sessment,” said Powell.”
But without a for-mal review of the prop-erty BC Assessment said it is unable to offer a satisfactory explana-tion to homeowners like Powell. “Our appraisers look at data,” said Geoff Radkie, a deputy auditor with BC Assessment.
“They analyze cur-rent sales in the area. Some of the newer homes in Prince Rupert were indicating sales of a 25 per cent increase. If there is a similar proper-ty in that area… it’s go-ing to reflect that market value assessment.”
“That said, we will look at the type of home too. We’re not going to value a home built in 1940 the same as a brand new home. It’s about the characteristics — the age, the quality, the size, the condition, what kind of view or the location it’s in… [But] we do mass appraisals, so there are ones that slip through the cracks.”
Radkie added less than two per cent of Ru-pertites contested their assessments last year. But his department is “more than willing to re-view any property, and if there is a mistake that needs looking at we’ll definitely look at it and make sure it’s correct.”
Property owners who feel their assessed value doesn’t reflect the actual value can request an assessment review by
calling 1-866-825-8322 or stop by the BC As-sessment office at 4545 Lazelle Ave. in Terrace.
Last year, 6th Av-enue West homeowner Tristan Higginson re-quested a review of his
$123,000 assessment, resulting in a $24,000 reduction. He said the two key reasons for the reassessment was com-parable listings on his block and then-unfin-ished home renovations.
“I showed her sim-ilar listings and she agreed with my ratio-nal,” said Higginson.
“There’s a big differ-ence between a finished house and an unfinished one.”
Kitamaat and Kitimat preparedfor shaking, rattling and rollingBy Cameron OrrThe NorTherN coNNecTor
TERRACE - The Jan-uary 5 earthquake off Alaska was another test of Kitimat’s emergency preparedness, and Fire Chief Trent Bossence said he definitely saw improvements com-pared to the October 27 earthquake in 2012.
“ C o m p a r a t i v e -ly it went well,” said Bossence. “There’s lots of different circum-stances with this one but the whole big picture of what we were trying to accomplish went very smoothly.”
He said he’s hap-py with the speed with which information was spread into the public.
He points to new channels such as Twit-ter and Facebook that al-lowed them to get mes-sages out. He’s referring to the Kitimat Economic Development Office’s Twitter feed (@Kitimat-EDO) and its newly cre-ated Facebook page.
The official website for Kitimat, Kitimat.ca, was also updated with tsunami news. These events showed Bossence that their short term goals were being met, goals which were set after the October 2012 earthquake near Haida Gwaii. In that case he had said communication was an issue to work on.
Fewer members of the public called the fire department this time and he also credits the prov-ince for stepping up their game in comparison.
“Information is criti-cal for us,” he said. “We don’t make a decision until we get that accurate information we need.”
That said, there is still work to do provin-cially. “The information was still delayed com-pared to the Alaska site but a lot quicker than what it was.”
He’s referring to the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Cen-tre. He is also happy with the coordination the Emergency Opera-tions Centre, which ac-
tivates in events such as earthquakes, had with industry and Kitamaat Village. A call to the head of the Haisla Vol-unteer Fire Department was not immediately re-turned. Volunteers were evacuating the village the morning of the earth-quake in the hour before the cancellation of the tsunami warning.
A debriefing of emergency personnel in Kitimat has already taken place to bring up ideas for further im-provement.
“There’s a lot of long term stuff that needs to happen,” said Bossence, such as an overall review of Kitimat’s emergen-cy plan. Shortly after 1 a.m. on January 5 a 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit off the southern coast of Alaska. The shaking could be felt in Kitimat and it sparked a tsuna-mi warning for the B.C. coast, however waves only reaching half a foot high were recorded.
The tsunami warn-ing was cancelled a little after 3 a.m.

Rail spur lineopened Jan. 12By Staff WriterThe NorTherN coNNecTor
TERRACE - Kitsumkalum First Nation and Cana-dian National Railway (CN) representatives Jan. 12 celebrated the official opening of a new rail spur to the Kitsumkalum Rock Quarry operations. The 3 km rail spur provides access to the CN main line.
Kitsumkalum Chief Councillor Don Roberts commented: “The decision to invest in the construc-tion of the new spur demonstrates Kitsumkalum’s commitment to its business growth and development opportunities in northwest BC.
With several major projects planned for the re-gion, construction demands will require high vol-umes of quality rock. Kalum Quarry is now posi-tioned to meet that rising demand over the long term.”
The official opening of the rail spur, which took place at Kitsumkalum, began with a locomotive en-tering the quarry for a ribbon cutting ceremony and included a bus tour.
Kitsumkalum hereditary chiefs, community members, CN representatives, local, provincial and federal political and business leaders were in at-tendance. Kitsumkalum First Nation owns Kalum Quarry Ltd. Partnership. The business stems from a deal reached years ago between CN and Kitsum-kalum to purchase rocks from the band to be used as ballast for the company’s railways. Beyond the rail ballast, research on the rock determined it could also be used for making cement aggregate and roadbase material to sell locally.
In addition to aggregate extraction, 110 acres of land located next to the pit will be cleared for the purposes of a logistics park.

New ID cards rolling outBy Tom FletcherTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
VICTORIA - The B.C. government is rolling out its new high-tech medi-cal services cards starting Feb. 15, in an effort to phase out millions of CareCards in the hands of non-residents.
The new cards will be combined with the B.C. driver’s licence, with a similar “BC Services Card” available to those who don’t drive. Residents will be required to re-enrol to renew the card every � ve years, whether they drive or not.
Quali� ed residents can enrol in the Medical Services Plan at any pro-vincial of� ce that issues driver’s li-cences. There is no fee for the health services card only. The current $75 fee for a � ve-year driver’s licence re-newal will apply to the new com-bined cards, discounted to $17 for seniors.
There is no requirement to get the new card until your driver’s licence needs to be renewed. The govern-
ment’s plan is to change over all eli-gible B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 to the new cards over the next � ve years.
To be eligible for MSP cover-age, you must be a citizen or ap-proved permanent resident of Can-ada, living in B.C. at least six months of the year. Dependents must also be residents to be eligible for coverage.
The health ministry announced the new card program in May 2011, after a review showed there were up to 9.1 million B.C. CareCards in circulation. The total population of B.C. is 4.5 mil-lion.
Health Minister Margaret Mac-Diarmid said the new card is de-signed to comply with B.C.’s informa-tion and privacy law, which restricts how personal data can be used and shared.
That means ICBC and po-lice have no access to medi-cal � les, and hospitals and medi-cal of� ces have no access to driving records.

Totem pole proposed for schoolBy Cameron OrrTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
KITIMAT - The First Nations support workers at Mount Elizabeth Mid-dle Secondary School (MEMSS) have em-barked on a mission to see a totem pole erected at the school.
The ambitious plan is only in its infancy stage but the workers have already secured a $2,600 grant from the District of Kitimat, which they hope is just the � rst in much such support.
“It’s been a long time dream, to have something in the build-ing that represents unity of our community and incorporates the aware-ness of the First Nations
culture in our school community,” said Kath-erine Johnsen, a coun-sellor at the high school.
She said the vision is to put the eventual pole in the entrance to the school by the of� ces and have it available for stu-dents to walk around all sides.
First Nations Sup-port Worker Sheila Dun-can said that if they can raise enough money for the project it’ll mean a hands-on project for stu-dents to learn from.
“That’s our vision, of having the whole school take part in learning how to carve and learn some of the history of totem polls,” she said.
MEMSS has ap-proximately 110 First
Nations students, she said.
The school has a long history of First Na-tions programs, includ-ing a design program which has run for about 40 years.
Duncan also said the role of the First Na-tions support workers is to bring in people from the community and sur-rounding areas to teach students about various aspects of the culture, from carving to drum making.
When their � nancial
goals are met they’ll get to work � nding a Haisla carver who would be a good match to their edu-cational needs; meaning someone who won’t be shy to explain things to the kids.
Having this project come to fruition will be bene� cial to the entire student body, said John-sen.
“It’s having a sense of ownership and sense of pride,” she said. “And for the non-First Nations kids it’s an awareness building.”

Terrace Safeway employee Greg Garbutt, left, nominated Safeway assistant manager Jeff Hockman, for an inclusive workplace award. Elizabeth Gagnon and Bonnie Bruce, pictured here, are from Community Living BC, the organization sponsoring the award.
Inclusive awardgiven in TerraceBy Staff WriterThe NorTherN coNNecTor
TERRACE - A local Safeway assistant man-ager has been given an award as part of a prov-ince wide program rec-ognizing employers for embracing inclusion and helping adults with de-velopmental disabilities have a greater sense of community and belong-ing in their workplace. Jeff Hockman was nominated by Terrace Safeway employee Greg Garbuttt through Community Living BC (CLBC’s) fourth annu-al Widening Our World (WOW) Awards.
The theme for the awards this year is em-ployment. Five employ-ers from different re-gions of the province were chosen from over 100 nominees – a WOW Awards record.
This is the Terrace Safeway’s second WOW Award. The store was also recognized in 2011.
Greg has worked at Safeway for over four years and says, “Jeff has been a great role mod-el for me and he also
shows an interest in me outside of my work.”
“He comes to my birthday parties and has taken me to the mov-ies. Jeff never makes me feel like I have special needs and treats me like he treats everyone else at work.”
Every year since 2009, Community Liv-ing BC (CLBC) has pre-sented the Widening Our World (WOW) Awards to recognize British Co-lumbians who are mak-ing exceptional contri-butions to the vision of full citizenship where people with develop-mental disabilities lead good lives, have rich re-lationships, choices in how they live and em-ployment opportunities.
Nominations of in-clusive employers or co‐workers were sub-mitted by self‐advocates throughout Community Living Month in Octo-ber 2012.
Five regional panels of community and fam-ily members, commu-nity council members, CLBC staff, service pro-viders and self‐advo-cates selected the 2012
award winners.CLBC views mean-
ingful employment as a big part of inclusion and promoting good lives in welcoming communi-ties. Employment leads to numerous quality of life outcomes, including financial well‐being, re-lationships and belong-ing.
CLBC is committed to working with the B.C. government to deliver on all 12 recommenda-tions in the Improving Services to People with Development Disabili-ties plan, which includes increasing employment planning and supports.
CLBC’s recogni-tion of employers who
are creating more inclu-sive workplaces com-plements this ongoing work.
“I want to congratu-late this year’s WOW Awards winners and all of the other employers who were nominated. Their efforts to promote meaningful employment opportunities for adults
with developmental dis-abilities helps raise com-munity awareness about the importance of inclu-sion through employ-ment in communities throughout the prov-ince,” said Doug Wool-lard, CLBC interim CEO.
“It’s wonderful to see so many employers pro-
viding rewarding jobs and experiences to in-dividuals with develop-mental disabilities, and they deserve recogni-tion for their leadership in ‘widening our world’ by embracing diversity in their workplace,” add-ed Moira Stilwell who is the province’s social de-velopment minister.

Doug Bloom, Spec-tra’s president of Cana-dian LNG and the first keynote speaker at the Natural Resources Fo-rum in Prince George on Wednesday, said that is the importance of the company’s newest proj-ect.
With 55 years under its belt, Spectra is bank-ing on its experience and reputation to help it take its place on the global scene.
“LNG put us in a global game. To date we’ve been in the North American games,” Bloom said.
With one and a half billion invested in the province over the last four years, Bloom said the company has estab-lished a framework for future operations.
He added there is a dramatic shift underway. Advances in gas produc-tion technology has been applied not only domes-tically, but in the States on a larger scale.
Since the States is Canada’s only importer of natural gas, if things remain the same the choices are stark, either accept declining ex-ports, knowing that in 10 to 15 years the US may need no imported natural gas at all, or look into accessing the global market.
The world LNG de-mand is 10 times B.C.’s current total natural gas production. Sixty per cent of the demand comes from Asia. Four countries are responsi-ble for over half of that demand, Japan, South Korea, China and India.
The market is grow-ing rapidly.
Japan is in mid shut-down of its nuclear reac-tors, and the discussion is whether they should ever produce even part of their energy.
“Others want to ex-pand their use of clean burning natural gas,” Bloom said.
Australia is inter-ested in meeting that de-mand, sanctioning over six projects. Other inter-ested countries include Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.
And the U.S., which last decade built a slew of LNG import termi-nals, is now turning them around as potential export terminals. Our only export customer
may soon become our biggest competitor!
Africa, South East Asia and Russia remain interested.
Knowing your strengths and weakness-es are important, Bloom said.
“B.C. is in a mas-sive supply position,” he said.
It has over 100 years of natural gas at current usage rates.
It’s close to Asia, has a stable democratic gov-ernment offering a safe place for investment and has well developed pre-mier facilities.
Some problems in-clude the processes companies go through to get approvals which he said are duplicative, cumbersome and un-timely. Though provin-cial and federal changes have helped, Bloom said there are still questions on whether or not any-thing can be built in B.C. in a timely manner.
The country’s rela-tions with First Nations is also misunderstood, slowing investment, Bloom said. Though there are issues, like the Idle No More ral-ly’s, many First Nation groups have partnered
well with various busi-nesses over the years, and many others have stand alone companies.
In the last two years alone, Spectra provided $120 million in contrac-tor work to local and Ab-original partners.
Though Canada is rich in resources, it has a modest population, causing regional econ-omies to overheat, for example the tar sands, meaning skilled labour and management could be a limiting factor.
“We are going to need to diversify our market. Even if they foresee it wrong, and it wouldn’t be the first time, growth in North America will be modest. The reality is rapid long term growth is in Asia. We need to be there.”
Bloom said it is important to continue working to establish re-lationships with Asia, like the government trade missions.
“We need to make this a collective prior-ity,” Bloom said.
To succeed, industry also needs the regulatory process to be rigourous, but on a global timeline.
He added they need capital from North
America and abroad.“Capital is mobile
and goes where it gets the best returns,” Bloom said.
Labour wise, the natural gas sector is ex-pected to employ 40,000 people by 2035, a num-ber that multiplies when you think of indirect jobs, Bloom said.
He added domestic labour needs to be sup-ported by immigration.
“We need a work-force in the north,” he said.
Those are some of the things, he said, that will be needed for them to compete on a global
scale.Bloom remains opti-
mistic they will proceed, will win, but it will take effort.
“Prosperity is not a given. It must be earned just like those gold med-als.”

Press Release The Prince Rupert Community Enrichment Society is proud to announce that the society has once again achieved a 4 year accreditation through Council on Accreditation.
COA accreditation is an objective, independent, and reliable validation of an agency’s performance. The COA accreditation process involves a detailed review and analysis of an organization’s administration, management, and service delivery functions against international standards of best practice. The standards driving accreditation ensure that services are well-coordinated, culturally competent, evidence-based, outcomes-oriented, and provided by a skilled and supported workforce. COA accreditation demonstrates accountability in the management of resources, sets standardized best practice thresholds for service and administration, and increases organizational capacity and accountability by creating a framework for ongoing quality improvement.
To achieve COA accreditation, the Prince Rupert Community Enrichment Society first provided written evidence of compliance with the COA Standards. Thereafter, a group of specially trained volunteer Peer Reviewers confirmed adherence to these standards during a series of on-site interviews with trustees, staff and clients.
Based on their findings, COA’s volunteer-based Accreditation Commission voted that the Prince Rupert Community Enrichment Society had successfully met the criteria for accreditation.Thank you to all who participated in this process.

By Tom FletcherThe NorTherN coNNecTor
VICTORIA - All students in Grade 4 and 7 who are able to are expected to write tests of literacy and math skills this month, but changes will be consid-ered for future years, B.C. Education Minister Don McRae says.
Long opposed by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, the Foundation Skills Assessment tests are being ad-ministered in public schools across B.C. The issue is sure to be debated in this spring’s provincial election, as the NDP campaigns to scrap universal testing and look for a new way to evaluate student performance.
McRae said Wednesday there will be no change to the program this school year, with students only excused due to family emergency, illness or other
circumstances beyond the control of the student. But he said he is open to discussing the program with the BCTF, school administrators and parents for years ahead.
“Any time we have a form of assessment, I think it’s really important that after you give it, if you’re going to give it again, you continually look at it to see if it can be done better or more efficiently, and meet the needs of the students, the parents and the educational system,” McRae said.
NDP education critic Robin Austin said work is underway with education experts to refine the party’s position on skills testing. If the NDP forms a govern-ment in May’s election, the plan is to replace prov-ince-wide tests with a random sample of students, and develop a new program later.
Austin said one of the problems with FSA test-ing is the annual controversy over the Fraser Institute school rankings based on test scores. The rankings are intended to help parents track their local school performance over time, but media attention typical-ly focuses on comparing schools in rich neighbour-hoods and poor ones.
The BCTF continues to urge parents to bend the rules and pull their children out of the testing pro-gram. A letter to parents on the BCTF website argues that FSA tests are expensive, time consuming and “results are misused to rank schools and promote privatization.”
McRae said FSA test results for all students have played a role in identifying students who need extra help, and can also help administrators spot perfor-mance problems in their schools.
But he agreed with Austin that it would not be appropriate to use FSA tests alone to evaluate teach-er performance.
As a former teacher, McRae said one of his con-cerns about FSA is the timing. If they are going to continue to be used, the tests should be administered in the fall so teachers and parents have the results in time to work with students later in the school year, he said.

GATEWAYperspectives
Over the last few months, I’ve talked about the precautions, the safety measures, and the selection criteria involved in the marine elements of the Gateway project — all of them intended to prevent an oil spill on water. I’ve also discussed how Gateway’s marine safety program was examined by an independent risk assessment group, which determined that the chances of a major spill are once in more than 15,000 years.
Although statistics and reports suggest a marine oil spill is unlikely, you want to know — what if one does occur? How will Gateway be prepared? While the chances are slim, we continue to develop a world-class marine response program.
The Northern Gateway Project includes a spill response capacity that’s more than three times the Canadian regulation. And while the Canadian requirement for oil spill response is 72 hours plus travel time, our response time will be a fraction of that number — 6 to 12 hours in the marine channels. This is a signifi cant increase to the response capability available to B.C.’s north coast. Additionally, for immediate response, our tug escorts will be
equipped with booms, oil skimmers, and fi refi ghting equipment to provide enhanced initial containment, and they will be available to all marine traffi c in the event of an incident.
We will store equipment, such as containment and absorbent booms, skimmers, and waste storage, in multiple well-maintained, readily accessible response bases, providing a wider area of coverage in a shorter amount of time. Barges will also be located throughout the marine channels for additional storage and equipment mobilization. We are committed to having staff, contractors, and partners in place to maintain that enhanced state of readiness.
The Gateway project will likely never see a major marine oil spill. But if it does, we’ll be prepared to protect our coastline.

Rampage win one, lose one in double-headerBy Shaun ThomasTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
PRINCE RUPERT - The Prince Rupert Rampage knocked off the CIHL leading Smither Steelheads to start a double-header weekend
On Saturday night the team hosted the league-leading Steel-heads, who were coming off their � rst loss of the past two seasons, and the powerful Smithers offence struck early when Adam Devries beat Keano Wilson less than two minutes into the � rst. But after some back and forth play the Ram-page tied things up on a wrist-shot by Ryan Stace-Smith just over half-way through the � rst, and Brian Tates would give Prince Rupert the lead with 3:42 to play. Prince Ru-pert took a 2-1 lead into the second frame.
The two teams would prove an equal match for much of the sec-ond, until a late powerplay saw Lane Perry beat Wilson with just 12 seconds left to tie things up and set the stage for an exciting � nish in front of the packed crowd.
In the third, Wilson came up with some big saves to shut the door on the Steelheads early. Just over halfway through the period Prince Rupert found themselves on the powerplay and, with the crowd cheering on the home team, Kory Movold capitalized to put the Ram-page up late in the game. While Smithers kept up the pressure, the
Rampage kept shutting the door to take a 3-2 win and hand the Steel-heads their second straight loss.
On Sunday, the Houston Luck-ies were in town following a 6-2 loss to the Kitimat Ice Demons the previous night. Much like Satur-day night’s game, it was the visi-
tors who struck � rst and early as Houston’s Jaden Janzen put the puck home just 29 seconds in from a scramble in front.
Prince Rupert responded though, as captain Jared Meers tipped in a Kory Movold slapshot right in front to tie things at one.
With 5:58 to play there was a scrum after the whistle that saw Greg Shephard and Cole Hasell drop the gloves, and the result was a four-minute Houston powerplay that the Rampage were able to kill off.
While there were plenty of great opportunities late in the period, the
teams went into the second tied at one.
In the second Houston again struck early, when a weak shot from just inside the line by Kurt Strim-bold went � ve-hole with 17:21 to go. Prince Rupert was able to tie things up against just 69 seconds later when Movold � nished off a great powerplay passing play at the side of the net. Eight minutes lat-er it appeared as though the Ram-page took the lead, but the goal was called back due to a player being in the crease, and that would prove to be a costly call as Houston’s Skylar Hasell put one past Wilson right off the faceoff with 1:40 to go to give the Luckies the 3-2 lead heading into the third.
The Rampage actually started the � nal frame with a two-minute powerplay, but it was Houston’s Derek Dinelle � red a slapshot over the glove of Wilson just 12 seconds in to put the Luckies up by two.
Movold lessened the gap with 17:23 to play with a slapshot from right in front. But a goal by Janzen with 4:09 to go put Rupert down 5-3, and with 2:28 to play coach Frank Pyde pulled the goalie only for Janzen to complete the hat trick with an empty netter to give the Luckies the 6-3 victory.
The Rampage host the Omineca Ice on Saturday, with Terrace host-ing Omineca on Sunday afternoon for the last River Kings game of the regular season.

Middle school hockey academy proposed for TerraceBy Anna KillenTHE NORTHERN CONNECTOR
TERRACE - Nearly everyone who has touched the Terrace school sys-tem has heard of at least one student who left Terrace to pursue sports at a school down south. Whether it was dance, soccer, hockey – the lower mainland provides opportuni-ties that simply aren’t offered here.
But if administrators at Skeena Middle School have their way, that won’t be the case forever. As early as next year, Terrace could see its � rst middle school also become its � rst hockey academy, with students enrolled in the new program as ear-ly as next year.
That’s the goal, at least, ac-cording to Skeena principal Phil-lip Barron and vice principal Cory Killoran, who � rst entertained the idea of a sports academy here in town while they were touring mid-dle schools with similar programs about a year and a half ago.
“We had the opportunity to talk � rsthand with the principals at the schools, and the staff, and some of the students enrolled and it all seemed very positive,” said Bar-ron, noting that they waited un-til this year to pursue it because they were so busy with the middle
school transition last year.“Now that we’re in our � rst
year [of being a middle school] and we’re well on our way we cer-tainly feel that the timing is right for something like this,” he said.
So after being in touch with Pa-ci� c Rim Hockey Academy, which runs the programs in Maple Ridge, Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam, Daw-son Creek and Chetwynd, and re-ceiving more information on how it could work here, they received the go-ahead from the Coast Moun-tains School District at the Dec. 19 meeting to proceed with com-munity consultation and planning.
“Now that we’ve got the board approval from the school district, the next step is going to be an open house in February. We’ve got in-formation from Paci� c Rim that we’re going to push out to parents, and what we’re going to look for next is an expression of interest,” said Barron.
If the support is there, which, Barron says they are “ very hopeful and cautiously optimistic” about, they’d then go about � guring out the logistics of the program.
This includes who would be the teacher in charge (at least one teacher has to be trained through
the academy to administer as-sessments) and who would coach the students – some schools � nd coaches in the community, while others use teachers already in the schools who have coaching experi-ence.
They’ll also have to � gure out when the classes will take place at the Sportsplex. They are leaning towards the beginning of the day or the end of the day, so that the school only has to cover one end of the transportation costs.
Then there is the issue of who is going to pay for it. The program costs money, so parents would have to be prepared to foot the bill.
Literature provided to the school board from Paci� c Rim states the program is $246 a month, that’s $1232 for one semester, Sep-tember through January, or $2460 for the full year.
But Skeena says it is committed to it being an inclusive and acces-sible program – they don’t want to see students turned away because they can’t afford it, the same way they deal with their volleyball and basketball teams.
So they’ll be looking at options for student � nancing, which could include support and sponsorships from community groups and First Nations Bands, and using revenue from renting out the school’s gym.
“We will make sure that those opportunities are known and avail-able so that we can offer this to kids,” said Barron.
The program will also be inclu-sive in other ways.
“Girls and boys participate, and in a couple of academies across the province girls’ participation is very, very high. Kids who play ringette. It’s open to kids of all skill levels – you don’t have to be the hockey super star, you can be someone who is beginning to learn the sport,” he said.
“We love the way it � ts in with the curriculum, everything that Pa-ci� c Rim has outlined meshes per-fectly with the phys-ed curriculum. We’re really excited about the off-ice component as well. They spend
quite a bit of time with the dry-land training, the nutrition, the healthy lifestyle – it’s not just the hockey component.”
And academics are an integral part of the program as well.
“It’s another opportunity we can offer kids to keep them and give them a strong connection to the school and their academics and community,” said vice principal Killoran. “There’s a good link be-tween playing and academics.”
And the school is aware that this might mean an increase in en-rollment numbers, as the program could attract students from sur-rounding areas.
“That’s not a driving force be-hind what we’re trying to do, but we are aware,” said Barron, noting that this might be a jump off point for other schools across the district to start similar programs. “We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. We’re not trying to recruit.”
And Killoran points out that it has the potential to keep students in the community. “We’ve heard about families and students who are leaving the community, spe-ci� cally to go to something some-where else,” he said. “So if we can provide that opportunity here...”
“There’s a good link between playing and academics.”
