Journal of the Rural School Exploration Number 8
This collection contains Volume 8 of Journal of the Rural School Exploration. The journal provides an in-depth study of rural schools in British Columbia, covering the region’s geography, history, and school system. It describes the development of public education from the days of the Hudson Bay Company to a government-supported system.The journal details the province’s health initiatives in schools, including annual medical exams, trained public health nurses, and a unified health service. There was also an experimental centralization program in the Peace River District, led by Inspector W. Plenderleith, which united multiple schools under one official trustee. The report was now concluded with recommendations to extend this centralized model across the entire province.
