Coast Mountains School District is pleased to announce the availability of after school bussing for Hazelton Secondary School students from the villages of Gitanmaax, Gitanyow, Gitsegukla, Gitwangak, Glen Vowell, Hagwilget and Kispiox to engage in after school extra-curricular activities for a period of sixteen weeks from February 2022 to May 2022.
This service was made possible through the BC Tripartite Education Agreement (BCTEA) Joint First Nation Student Transportation Plans to provide an innovative approach to ensuring adequate and appropriate transportation services for First Nations students who attend public schools.
In conjunction with the BCTEA Joint First Nation Student Transportation Plans, our School District has committed funding in the amount $25,291.52 towards this eagerly anticipated after school bussing initiative for Hazelton Secondary School benefiting students residing in the outlying communities for after school activities.
Our appreciation is extended to the Hazelton/Kitwanga First Nations Education Advisor and Coordinators and School Administration for their commitment and dedication in making this much needed service come to fruition for the deserving students at Hazelton Secondary School.
Coast Mountains School District will track the use of this service as a means of gauging the needs moving forward.
