A two year
moratorium on the
expansion of com-
munity schools in
North Vancouver has
been lifted.

And Norgate Elementary
School has become the first
school to join the ranks of
the eight other officially
designated community
schools - a number which is
not likely to increase greatly.

At the same time North
Vancouver school trustees
took these steps, they also
endorsed three new policies
designed to enhance
community school services.

“A formal decision to
maintain the present
communtiy schools but
permit no additions, seems
undesirably inflexible both
to communities not
presently served by com-
munity schools, and to the
present community schools
where conditions may well
alter over a period of time,”
a board committee § con-
cluded.

An earlier report on the
schools had concluded that
the schools were a qualified
success, and the committee
comments tabled last weok,
were based on this report.
