Winlaw school —
breath of fresh air

Editor, Castlegar News:
When up North, I was a

liason between the school and

community. I worked daily

with the principal of a school’

the same enroliment as Win-
law's, only K through 12.
“I return now with a
greater underatanding of a
principal's _ responsibilities,
his joys and woes. It seems
there is no end to the
expectations, from parents,
school board, students, teach-
ers, etc., upon such a role.
The principal must answer to
and fulfill all. «
This broad set of diverse
expectations can dangerously

limit his power. Yet, there,

are ways that a principal can
assert his own principles, and
thus create the “personality”
of a school, :

I find Winlaw school a
breath of fresh air for this
reason; personality.

The continued openess
to parent input has resulted
in a blend of new ideas and a
sharing community talent. A
model for such sharing is a
way of life at Winlaw school.

Weekly, the - students
display their best efforts, as
others, both older and young-

er, appreciate. Here is pride
in achieving higher grade
levels without snobbery and
aloofness.

Singing and theatrics
abound at this school, A
child's strong need to per-
form {s channeled into accept-
able pathways. Excessive
and undirected clowning
about does not interrupt the
serious work.

It’s clear there are times
for work and listening and for
performing. It'e not just
work and listening. Winlaw's

emphasis on self expression

through writing, speech,
singing, and drama is, for the
kids, a step toward success in
the real world ahead.

Thanks to a principal
who allows the recognition of
various budding talents and
transmits them into fruitful
gestures!

* Now, as another year of -

school closes, we parents
may wish to give a round of
thanks to all such teachers
and principals who have
expanded the gifts of our
children.
