12 Chemainus Crofton Community Schools' Assoc... April 29, 2015 Candace Spilsbury, Board Chair Dear Mrs. Spilsbury I am writing in regards to the Chemainus Crofton Community Schools Association. We, as members of the CCSA Board of Directors, request that we be given an opportunity to address the Board of Education Trustees and present information that we believe is important to the board while they are making important budget decisions. Our Community Schools Association, based in Chemainus and Crofton Elementary Community Schools, serves Saltair, Chemainus, Crofton, Thetis and Penelakut, to Westholme. However, everyone is welcome to participate in CCSA activities. We provided services and opportunities to a wide range of students that are a vital part of our school community. The potential cuts to the funding that has been generously been provided by SD79 in the past would mean an end to our community school as we know it. Without funding our community and our student body would be at a great loss to continue to provide services to our students in an area where services are very limited. The impact our Community School has made on our students is felt by so many children and families. Please allow us the opportunity to present ourselves to the board and share the benefits of our programs with you. Aurora Dahlgren, Secretary to the CCSA board Heidi Elley, Director Kirsten Waller, Director Page 12 of 50

It was a collaborative effort by the students to clean up and take care of their community. With enthusiasm and energy, the students and teachers headed out into the neighbourhood to collect litter.
