The Honourable Peter Fassbender
Minister of Education
PO Box 9045, Stn Prov Govt
Victoria, BC V8V 9E2
RE: Motions passed at BCSTA AGM regarding Bill 11
Dear Minster Fassbender,
At our Annual General Meeting this past weekend, the membership of the BC School Trustees
Association passed the following three motions in regard to Bill 11-2015: The Education
Statutes Amendment Act, 2015.
1.
That BCSTA demand the Government of BC immediately withdraw the sections of
Bill 11 that override the authority of democratically elected Boards of Education.
Specifically where Bill 11 adds new provisions which broaden the Minister’s authority
to issue administrative directives, where Bill 11 would amend the special advisor
provision, and where shared service providers are designated by the Minister of
Education.
2.
That BCSTA publicly advocate strongly against the erosion of local Board of
Education autonomy in Bill 11.
3.
That BCSTA demand an immediate review of the intent of Bill 11 legislation and an
opportunity to recommend amendments prior to final adoption as well as the
formation of a management partners’ working group to participate in the
development of any subsequent process or resulting regulations.
The predominate view of Trustees from across this province is that Bill 11 as written is a
challenge to the autonomy and authority of locally elected Boards of Education.
Had BCSTA and our member Boards been provided an opportunity for participation and input
such as that given for the accountability framework or curriculum revisions, we may not have
arrived at this point. The absence of appropriate consultation and review processes compounds
our concerns.
Page 3
Contrary to the intent and spirit of our recently signed Co-Governance Memorandum of
Understanding, the Ministry of Education did not engage Boards in a broad-based consultation
process prior to the tabling of this legislation. As the co-governors of the K-12 system, Boards
of Education were not provided an opportunity to hear the concerns or intent of government
before this legislation was tabled; nor were Boards asked to co-construct appropriate changes
to the School Act or other legislation.
Deputy Minister Dave Byng committed to the BCSTA membership at our AGM last Friday that
there would be opportunities for both consultation and input regarding the planned regulations
that will flow out of this legislation. We now seek your commitment to work with us to first
address the areas of concern Trustees have with Bill 11 itself.
If British Columbia is to maintain an outstanding public education system, there must be respect
for the individual needs and input of local communities through their elected representatives:
BC’s Boards of Education. Divesting Boards of their ability to independently and appropriately
manage the priorities of their school district threatens the structures and decision making
processes that have benefited our students for decades.
Strong Boards of Education provide BC communities with the local representation and decision
making that is necessary for us to maintain the flexibility, innovation and adaptability that make
our schools both unique and world class.
Bill 11 has just come up for second reading in the House. We ask your support in ensuring this
piece of legislation is not adopted as written. Your support for the continued autonomy and
authority of locally elected Boards of Education will help ensure our greatest asset, our
students, receive the unique educational opportunities they deserve through well managed and
locally responsive schools.
Sincerely,
Teresa Rezansoff
President
BC School Trustees Association

425 Jermyn Ave.
Penticton, BC V2A 1Z4
Dear Ms. Alphen,
Thank you for your letter of April 14, 2015 in regard to Bill 11 and the opportunity for Boards to
discuss their concerns with the legislation at our Annual General Meeting. The BCSTA Board
considered your request as well as those of other Boards in bringing forward a late motion to
our AGM to ensure Bill 11 was fully discussed by our members. The fulsome discussion that
took place around the three separate motions regarding Bill 11 will help to guide our
organization as we address the issues raised in the legislation.
In addition to the motions and debate at AGM, BCSTA has produced an overview document
explaining the various parts of this somewhat complex bill. In follow-up, we will also be
providing Boards this week with a detailed Question and Answer document answering the key
questions that have been brought forward by Trustees since the bill was tabled. In particular,
we will address the central question of ‘what is actually changed by the new legislation?’ in
terms of government authorities.
While we have not put forward an online survey for Boards as you also suggested, I am hoping
that the actions of the BCSTA Board addressing the need for both discussion and information
have been satisfactory. Any further feedback or suggestions you might offer would be
appreciated.
Thank you again to you and your fellow Board members for their input to the direction of
BCSTA.
Sincerely,
Teresa Rezansoff
President
BC School Trustees Association

COLUMBIA ELEMENTARY
Col umb i a’s S ch o o l C h o i r Wo n 1 s t Pr i ze ! ! !
Over thirty Columbia students
from grades 3, 4 and 5 have
participated in the Columbia
school choir, thanks to a
Columbia parent Jacki Kliever,
who has volunteered to direct
this group since the Fall.
Recently, the Columbia School
Choir had the opportunity to
participate in the Kiwanis Music
Festival, and we were so proud
of what great ambassadors they
were for the school. The group
was also very proud of their
first prize certificate that they
brought back!
Talent Show
Just before spring break, the
fine arts teacher hosted a talent
show for Columbia students,
featuring singing, dancing,
karate, drumming, and even
magic! What a wonderful
display of Columbia talent!
So much talent that they
needed two shows… a special
thanks to Ms. Berg for
organizing this great
opportunity for students to
demonstrate their skills.

Musical Theatre ~ Annie
UPLAND’S ELEMENTARY
As part of classroom-based Fine Arts instruction students in Judy Street’s grade 3 class recently performed
“Annie – Choral Selections”
as part of the Kiwanis Music, Dance and Speech Arts Festival. Students reheased singing, acting and dancing to
well-known selections “Hard Knock Life”, “Tomorrow”, “Your Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile”, “Anything But
You” and” Maybe”.
All students embraced the opportunity to take on a mini-production and experience Musical Theatre at an early
age. They shone on stage and should be very proud of the risks they took and the confidence they developed as
part of the process from start to final performance. Special appreciation goes to Ms. Judy Street, Ms. Ellen Tribe
(practicum student) and all of the parents who assisted with the costumes and props.
Congratulations on a fantastic job! Uplands is very proud of you.

GIANT’S HEAD ELEMENTARY
Spring is in the Air
April has been another busy month at Giant’s Head:
Giant’s Head Elementary started their 4th annual Giant’s Head Marathon. They started the
run with an assembly run by local triathlete’s Lee and Martina Agur. All of the students (K-5)
will run a full marathon over the course of the spring. Each day the classes head out at
11:50 a.m. and run 1.2 km around the Dale Meadows running track. The Marathon will
culminate with a 2 km fun run where each student will get a t-shirt for running 42.2 km – it’s
quite an achievement!
TALENT SHOW
They also held their annual
Giant’s Head Talent Show.
They had a wide range of acts
including violin,
singers, dancer, gymnasts,
and comedians (to name a
few). As always the event
culminated with some
entertaining “teacher
talent”.
