Sergeant Steven Henson attended the Board Meeting to answer questions and share information with Trustees. Topics of discussion were social media, drugs, partnerships, potential effects of legalization of marijuana. Great discussion, very informative.<\/p>\n<p>2. The Board passed a motion supporting a local group wanting to create a high school hockey team. This approval is needed in order to apply to The High School Hockey League for admission. There was some good discussion about what effect the addition of hockey might have on other schools sports; should hockey remain a community responsibility, cost, what happens to the rec program. Good discussion. The Board does want to state that it will not be adding additional money to the extracurricular budget.<\/p>\n<p>3. The Board was informed that the Workplace Health and Safety Committee has decided that WHIMS Training will only occur every second year once a person has received their initial training.<\/p>\n<p>4. The Board has stuck a Committee to plan for the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the Swan Valley School Division. If people have ideas, please email or call the Division Office. This is an important milestone for the Division and the Valley.<\/p>\n<p>5. The Board was informed that the Trades Construction Building should be completed by the end of the month.<\/p>\n<p>6. The project to upgrade the exterior walls of the SVRSS has started. This will give the Regional a construction zone feel during Grad, but if we want it completed for the start of school, work needs to start now.<br \/>\n_______________________________<\/p>\n<p>Minutes of the regular meeting of the Board of Trustees held in the Division Office Board Room on June 12, 2017 commencing at 7:30 p.m. (unapproved)<\/p>\n<p>The following were present:<br \/>\nChair: K.
