History

JL Crowe was founded in 1951, after demand grew over the smaller, and aging Trail High School in Downtown Trail. The shops were extensive as Cominco hosted the largest apprenticeship programme at Crowe in Western Canada. The school also held 1st year Arts and Science classes until 1966 when Selkirk Regional College opened. It was originally a grades 10-12 plus 1st year Arts & Science, as there were 2 middle schools in the area. Modifications were made to the school during the mid 70s, and 80s, and a bigger library. After 58 years the school was demolished, and a new one was built.
