18 Terrace Review — Wednesday, November 5, 1986 School trustee incumbent Lavern Hislop runs for board seat | Laven Hislop: Recruitment of best teachers ensures key to success. My husband Fred and I have been residents of Terrace for 35 years. We had five children, all graduates of the Terrace schools and now have grandchildren attending schools in this district. My political and ad- ministrative experience has been varied. As well as being a homemaker and mother I have been a member of the School Board for the past seven years and served as chairman for three years of that time. I was the North Coast Branch School Districts’ representative to the Provincial Education Committee for five years. During the B.C. Winter Games last year I coordinated the 52 Hostesses who worked at all venues. I am a member of the Pacific Northwest Music Festival and served a two year term as President. In the past I have done substitute teaching in our schools for a number of years as well as worked as a secretary in a real estate and insurance of- fice. I feel the board should continue to: Lobby the Ministry to ensure that courses con- tinue to be revised in light of new and dif- ferent needs of the students and of new knowledge. Future ap- plications to the Fund Support shown for Terrace Literacy Campaign TERRACE — The over- whelming response to the Literacy Gampaign has influenced the beginning of several support pro- grams which aid strug- gling students. by Philip Musselman The effectiveness of the -Adult Basic Educa- tion Association of B.C.’s campaign in- spired the joining of Many supporters. Al- though the campaign has done well so far it has just scratched the surface of the problem. In order to address the problem, there are some projects which must be con- Sidered. One of these projects is already in the early development Stages, and relies on community support throughout the province. A letter to the mayor thanked Terrace for its support and its letter of encouragement. The let- ter also informed the city that a toll-free number for long distance access For Excellence will en- sure that monies are available for local in- & itiatives. This year’s grant of $334,000 has resulted in the district computers and computer equipment; providing $40,000 for teacher in- service; spending $50,000 on library resources and sup- § plementary material and § purchasing $14,000 worth of safety equip- ment in the form of eye wash stations in all school labs. Recruit teachers possible; to pro- vide them fair and equitable salaries; to en- sure that they receive J Professional Develop- ment and Inservice to | teach the new and revis- ed programs; and to con- § tinue to recognize their contribution to the suc- § cess of this school district. Request that thef Ministry have textbooks | available to teach the students before teachers | are required to imple- J ment a new course. I am proud of our J schools and the good things happening there. | Our class sizes are § smaller than last year and we have been able to offer our teachers more money.

Also in response to the Literacy Campaign in- stitutions, like North- west Community Col- lege, have started student aid programs for people who are struggling at school.
