Terrace Review — Wednesday, October 10, 1990 Al3 ; | Community Services Trustee association head assesses school changes ~ ‘by Nancy Orr —! —— Donna Jones, president of the B.C. School Trustees Associa- tion, was in Terrace last week to attend the sessions of the North Coast School Trustees Associa- tion at the Mount Layton Hot- springs. . Trustees and school officials from the Queen Charlottes to Houston gathered for the meetings and to exchange infor- mation and ideas. ““A recent Decima poll (in May) listed B.C. as having the greatest disinterest by the public in school affairs,’’ said Jones. “But both Education Minister Brummett and Ken Novakow- ski, president of the B.C. Teachers Federation, said that the findings did not agree with a recent survey by the BCTF. ‘But we do realize that with only 30 percent of the popula- tion having children in school, it is important to keep the popula- tion informed,”’ she said. “This year, at the community level, all the seats in both municipal and school board are up for election,’’ said Jones, ‘and they will be elected for three years — it will be three years before any changes can be made, ‘*‘We are concerned that our voters may be lulled into a feel- ing of complacency, and that municipal problems and con- cerns will take precedence over the wider concerns of school board affairs.’* Jones has been a trustee in Victoria for seven years and president of the BCSTA since April.

Jones responded to questions about the school system: On changes in the schools: We are not reinventing the wheel, just refining it. The system is responding to the needs of the future. Philosophy: that individuals learn in different ways, and that different ways are valid. We have to look at other ways of delivering the message, in com- bination with what is already be- ing done. Goals: Goals need to be set for children, they need to realize their own need to be the best they can. We need to make chil- dren comfortable, to make them ~ know that they are capable, to de-emphasize failure. Concerns: There is some con- cern about assessment and evaluation, which is of impor- tance to parents, and that is something to work on, Also dual entry, but that is expected to work into the system in coming years. Exceptional children: Home support is essential for the ex- ceptional child; homes can offer the stimulation necessary and the activities to build on what schools do. Special education: The handi- capped are an accepted part of our system. There is still need for special accommodation for buildings to make it easier for children to be as independent as possible. “It is hard to make changes,” . said Jones. ‘“Everyone has been there, everyone knows a dif- ferent story from personal ex- perience. ‘‘As most educators will tell you, the system has not really changed a lot, just validated what good teachers have always been doing. There is just more freedom from restrictions, to be able to do what you know will work for your class.”’ As president of the BCSTA, she finds herself working closely with the Minister of Education Brummett and other stake- holders in education. On Oct. 16 and 17, she will take part in an Education Advisory Meeting, with representatives from the Business Council, the Chamber of Commerce, Arts Council, Science Council, Teachers Organization, Secretary- Treasurers, Principals and Vice- Principals and BCTF — “‘one of the most significant organiza- tions in education,’’ she said. “And we know the minister listens to our recommendations.” is
