History

Overview

Land developers organized and sponsored the first schools within Prince George. [1] By 1914, one high and three elementary schools existed. [2] Within the area of what would become SD 57, the establishment of separate school districts (usually comprising a single school), totalled 9 in 1911–1920, 17 in 1921–1930, and 11 in 1931–1940. [3] During the Great Depression, centralization increased because local boards abrogated their responsibilities, forcing the installation of official trustees and creating larger administrative units. [4]

Attracting and retaining qualified rural teachers proved difficult. Factors included salaries, [5] scathing inspectors, [6] isolation, community factions, [7] no running water, no electricity, inadequate heat, [8] teaching multiple grades, [9] and sometimes an expectation to organize the various children's social activities for the community at large. [10] Rural schools were dependent upon a smaller and volatile local tax base for funding. When an economic downturn, fire, or depleted accessible timber, closed a sawmill (the primary employer in most rural communities), workers relocated, student numbers dropped, and the tax base collapsed. [11]

Rural school buildings were usually rudimentary, and many in a poor state of repair. Equipment and supplies were limited. [12] Consequently, rural students, receiving the barest elementary programs, [13] lacked educational opportunities, and few progressed to a secondary school offered only by a main centre. [14]

The 1946 implementation [15] of the 1945 Cameron Report into BC school financing and administration [16] created centralized larger districts. Benefits to rural schools were a broader tax base, [17] to Prince George schools an augmentation of existing infrastructure, [18] and to all schools an increase in provincial funding from 30 to 50 percent. [19] The earlier municipal districts provided no guidance as to setting boundaries, because many were quite small, and 90 percent of the province was unorganized. [20] The new Prince George school district boundaries were equidistant between Quesnel southward, Vanderhoof westward, and at Penny southeastward. [21] On the disbanding of local boards, the former Prince George one, comprising members of civic and economic stature, became the interim board. [15] The elected 1948 board comprised four city and three rural representatives, [22] reaffirming some degree of local control. [19]

The new board did not operate with complete autonomy, but had to avail itself of the experience, training, and knowledge of local inspectors of schools, [23] who represented the province. The latter, who had been regarded as faultfinders by local trustees, became mentors aligned with the centralized trustees. [24] The board became a buffer between local residents and the province, [25] and the inspectors were freed from petty management issues. [26]

Burgeoning student numbers throughout the 1950s saw massive increases in teacher recruitment and classroom capacity. [27] Many new schools served residential development along the new highways north and west. [28] However by the mid 1950s, building remote rural schools rarely occurred because of maintenance challenges, and from the late 1950s, numerous schools closed as mills closed. [29]

In 1970, SD 58 Mc Bride merged into SD 57, and its board dissolved. The new enlarged school district matches the boundaries of the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George. [30]
