I would like to welcome the school community to the 2012-2013 school year! We are all looking forward to working with all of you this year on behalf of Coast Mountains learners, and continue to make progress towards our district goals.
Shared Vision – “Coast Mountains School District shall become a high performance rural school district”
District Goals – To raise literacy levels in district elementary schools. – To increase success and graduation rates for all learners. – To challenge and engage all students, while increasing their ability to be socially responsible. – To support staff and student growth through professional learning, networking and the sharing of wise practices.
I look forward to continue leading the way to turn these goals into reality, and I hope you will all join the Board of Education, School District 82 staff and myself in this quest for successful learning.
If you require information on which school your child should attend, please call (250) 638-4401 or 1-855-635-4931, Local 4401.
Sincerely,
Nancy Wells Superintendent of Schools
