    Community Schools in Saskatchewan A Research Project March 31, 2008. Loraine Thompson Information Services Limited. After significant numbers of European settlers arrived in Saskatchewan, many one-room schools were established. These one-room schools were truly community schools. "Community members were generally responsible for building the school." "In the early years, teachers boarded with families in the communities, traveling to school with some of their students." "As centres of learning and of community development, one-room schools in Saskatchewan were as significant to the development of this province as the thousands of wood grain elevators that have also been relegated to history" (Mitchell, 2006).

    Changes in the structure and operation of Saskatchewan's rural education system were examined. The aim was to find ways to equalize educational opportunity and raise the level of education. Data were obtained from: (1) public opinion derived from community forums, communities and organizations' briefs, and hearings at which representatives of communities and organizations testified; and (2) 4 separate questionnaires sent to secretary-treasurers of larger school units, superintendents, local school district boards, and teachers. This report discusses the: (1) problems in education as seen by the province's rural people; (2) environmental change and rural education; (3) regrouping of educational facilities; (4) larger units of administration; (5) educational finance, both expenditures and revenues; (6) staffing Saskatchewan schools; (7) retention of pupils; (8) continuation to higher education; (9) vocational education; and (10) continuing education for adults. Also given are a summary of the public's solutions to the educational problems and some recommendations by the Royal Commission on Agriculture and Rural Life. (NQ)

  • The Story of Saskatchewan School No. 99: The Lives and Times of Pioneers on the South Saskatchewan River
    Written by Bob Wahl. FriesenPress, Oct 20, 2014 Other version
    The Story of Saskatchewan School No. 99 is a unique portrayal of early education and the lives of settlers along the South Saskatchewan River ~ the Clark's Crossing Area. By weaving his own personal recollections with facts, anecdotes, and stories from interviews and other historical sources, author Bob Wahl has created a history book that will appeal to both historians and the general public. Outstanding photos and copies of historic documents help complete the story of a school established in 1887 and the settlers of Clark"s Crossing " many of whom were Old Colony Mennonites. Although a local history, this book will appeal to any Canadian interested in a portrait of the hardships, conflicts, and tragedies, as well as the successes and accomplishments of our country"s early pioneers.
