Sheppard Department Head, English June 1998 2 “Celebrate the History” Horton District High School 1959-1998 is published in conjunction with the Closing the School Committee responsible for organizing the reunion of former students, staff, teachers, and friends of Horton, 3-5 July 1998 Copies of the limited first printing or later printings may be obtained by sending $10.00 to the following address: Horton High School Att.: David E. Sheppard RR#2 Greenwich Wolfville, Nova Scotia B0P 1X0 Also, please send corrections and/or additions, as soon as possible. January 2009: Printed copies are no longer available. 3 Preface: “Celebrate the History” s the doors of Horton District High School close in 1998, forty years after construction of the facility began, students, alumni, teachers, A administrators and staff carry with them memories of the academic, social, athletic, and even political events surrounding their time at the school. Some students were at Horton from grade seven through grade twelve; others were here for shorter periods of time. No one person spent more time at Horton than Rhea Mosher, who was on the teaching staff for thirty-two years, followed closely by Paul Young, who was at the school for thirty-one years. None of the original staff is still at Horton, of course. The founding principal, “Chuck” Eaton, retired, and passed away in 1984. Earle Giles retired in 1974, and died in 1997. Jon Margeson moved to Central Kings and Berwick schools before his retirement, and died in 1997. Greg Ross became Assistant Superintendent before his retirement. Peter Goucher took advantage of a career opportunity and moved to Cornwallis District High School, to lead another battle for improved school facilities and programs there. Gerald Giddens took advantage of the provincial early retirement program, keeping his golf club in the door as co- chair of the “Celebrate the History” Committee organizing events for closing the school. This history is part of the celebration of the closing of the school. It contains a huge amount of information, but is still incomplete. It may contain errors; if so, please let me know. I am quite aware that there are many “untold” stories amongst staff and students. Supplement this history with your memories, with your yearbooks, and with any other mementos you have kept. If I hoped for two things as an historian, it would be these things: that people would remember to put dates and years on documents, programs and posters, and that all of us would be more aware of the possible value of records, so that we don’t throw them away. This has happened to too many Horton District High School records. Please do not be offended if your name is missing, or a special event overlooked. Instead, please call or write, and I will ensure that changes are made in future editions. 4 I wish to thank Andrea Sweeney for helping find lost details, Lamont Larkin for some old photos, Marlene Jackson and Robert Rushton for music information, and Jim Fetty for some proofreading. Also to be commended is Paul Young’s Horton Archiving Committee, whose efforts have guaranteed the survival for posterity of many school documents, pictures, trophies, etc. Andrew Clinch, Horton Principal, has also provided storage facilities in the new school, and Ed Getson will oversee the display area for Horton memorabilia in the school. Your contributions will be appreciated.

D. Haliburton, Minister of Agriculture, on Friday, 9 October 1959 in the school gymnasium. According to the media, one thousand people attended the ceremony, to hear special guest speaker H. M. Nason, Director of Primary and Elementary Schools for the Department of Education. Amos Blenkhorn, chair of the Horton District School Board, presided, and platform guests included the Municipal Council of Kings, headed by Warden William T. Blair; Municipal School Board Chairman Gordon Gates, Port Williams; chairs of the other school boards in the county; Eric Balcom, MLA, Kings North; contractor Vernon Woodworth; Douglas Webber, architect, Halifax; and many others. Mr. Nason was introduced by Inspector of Schools, Seymour C. Gordon. Mr. Nason told the audience that “the greatest single problem facing education today is to take care of an over-abundant supply of children. A satisfactory solution to this problem will require the cooperative action of the best brains in the country.” Mr. Gordon Gates, Warden W. T. Blair and MLA Eric Balcom also spoke briefly. According to The Wolfville Acadian,1 Mr. Haliburton reviewed the planning that went into the new school and said he felt that it made a decided forward step in the education program of the county and the province. He noted that the founding of Horton Academy, in 1828 as a private school, had, after completing 130 years, closed and pointed to the 1 The Acadian printed the story verbatim from The Halifax Chronicle-Herald. 6 fact that it is a coincidence that this magnificent new Horton District School is now open. Horton district schooling dates [from] the New England Planters in 1758. It was noted that Principal Charles Eaton is a descendant of one of these families. The Kentville paper, The Advertiser, reported other aspects of the opening ceremony, which included the presentation of Union Jack flags by the Sir Robert Borden IODE and the women of the Greenwich United Church. Mr. Nason presented a provincial flag on behalf of the government. The keys to the school were passed formally from contractor Woodworth to architect Webber, who in turn, presented them to building committee chair, Councillor Robert Bishop. Mr. Bishop presented them to Mr. Eaton, the Principal. According to the student newspaper, The Echo, musical entertainment was by the Acadia String Ensemble consisting of Peter Giles, violin, Peggy Giles, cello, Robert McKaskell, violin, and Warwick Lister, violin, under the leadership of Professor Janis Kalejs; they played a suite of 18th century tunes. Apart from these student performers, no other students were involved in the program. The invocation was by Reverend Robert Shaw of Grand Pre, and the dedicatory prayer was by Reverend Frank Sinnott of Port Williams. The school received its name from Horton Township, which was established in 1758 -1759 following the expulsion of the Acadians. The Education Act of 1811 led to the establishment of a grammar school at Horton Corner, now Kentville, as early as 1826, and boys from Horton Township attended this school. In 1829, in Wolfville, a private school was established for boys. Named Horton Collegiate Academy, it was later known as Horton Academy.2 The names of these schools were obviously taken from the township.3 The Act of 1932 encouraged common and grammar schools, with one thousand students in Kings County in 1835. The Free Schools Act of 1864 provided education for those who desired it. Many local scholars also attended Acacia Villa School in Hortonville. It opened in 1852 as a private institution and closed in 1920. Also known as the Patterson School, it was the place of learning for such famous Nova Scotians as Sir Robert Borden, Isaac Walton Killam, and L. E. Shaw. 2 Although the new school was not connected in any way with Horton Academy, it is apparent that those responsible for the new district high school, especially the Principal, wanted to create an association, at least in name choice. 3 Cornwallis District High School had taken its name from the Cornwallis Township when that school opened in 1958; Central Kings was built in 1951, West Kings in 1956. 7 High schools first existed in the towns of Wolfville and Kentville, other high school students often travelling to the towns for their final years of education. During the 1950s, modern schools had been built in Wolfville, in Cambridge (Central Kings District), in Auburn (West Kings District) and in Canning (Cornwallis District). At the time, the responsibility for education in Kings County fell to the Municipal School Board, chaired by Gordon Gates of Port Williams.4 The Horton school district was made up of the following twenty-one school sections: Bishopville, Avonport, Lower Wolfville, Port Williams, Canaan, Lower Gaspereau, Greenfield, Hants Border, Grand Pre, Greenwich, Town Plot, White Rock, West Brooklyn, Upper Gaspereau, Lockhartville, North Grand Pre, New Minas, Highbury, Gaspereau, Davidson Street, and Black River. The school had its own Board, chaired by Amos L. Blenkhorn5 of Port Williams. The other members of the Horton District School Board were Royce Fuller of Avonport; Perley Saltzman of White Rock; A. Thornburn of Hants Border; Carl Rhyno of Grand Pre; C. Long of Black River; M. Mackenzie of New Minas; L. Schofield of Greenfield; and Ellis Gertridge of Gaspereau, who served as the secretary. The school was designed by Halifax architect Douglas A. Webber, and was constructed by Vernon C. Woodworth, Limited of Kentville. The original building contained eighteen academic classrooms, a library, two Household Economics laboratories (cooking and sewing), two science labs, an auditorium/gymnasium, two shower rooms, an administrative section and staffroom.

  • Placenaming on Cape Breton Island 381 a Different View from The
    Placenaming on Cape Breton Island A different view from the sea: placenaming on Cape Breton Island William Davey Cape Breton University Sydney NS Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT : George Story’s paper A view from the sea: Newfoundland place-naming suggests that there are other, complementary methods of collection and analysis than those used by his colleague E. R. Seary. Story examines the wealth of material found in travel accounts and the knowledge of fishers. This paper takes a different view from the sea as it considers the development of Cape Breton placenames using cartographic evidence from several influential historic maps from 1632 to 1878. The paper’s focus is on the shift names that were first given to water and coastal features and later shifted to designate settlements. As the seasonal fishing stations became permanent settlements, these new communities retained the names originally given to water and coastal features, so, for example, Glace Bay names a town and bay. By the 1870s, shift names account for a little more than 80% of the community names recorded on the Cape Breton county maps in the Atlas of the Maritime Provinces . Other patterns of naming also reflect a view from the sea. Landmarks and boundary markers appear on early maps and are consistently repeated, and perimeter naming occurs along the seacoasts, lakes, and rivers. This view from the sea is a distinctive quality of the island’s names.

  • NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report
    NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report Prepared by: Nova Scotia Teachers Union January 2006 Copyright Nova Scotia Teachers Union, 2006 1 Background There has been on-going discussion about the various venues used by NSTU Professional Associations for the annual October Conference. Some members and some associations have expressed the belief that a combination of logistics (meeting space and size, hotel accommodation, parking, etc.), tradition and member preference has effectively mandated the conference venue to be in the Metro Halifax area. Other members and associations have held that providing their conference at alternate locations around the province has provided greater flexibility and accessibility for teachers. Most of this opinion has rested on an anecdotal base and therefore could not be used to provide meaningful guidance to NSTU Professional Associations. At its meeting of January 20-22, 2005, the Provincial Executive passed the following motion: That the NSTU conduct a survey of the membership with respect to location of conferences, the rotation of association conferences on a province-wide basis and the use of satellite conference sites for large associations. A draft survey, key actions and timetable were developed and presented to the Professional Associations Coordination Committee at its meeting on November 4, 2005 for input, revision and approval. The survey was finalized and approval given for its distribution to teachers prior to December 2005. Methodology A survey instrument was developed (see Appendix B) to determine teachers’ views concerning the venue for the annual October Professional Association conferences. Specifically, this instrument sought to determine whether teachers supported distributing the conferences around the province, the preferred venues and if there was support for the concept of rotating venues.

Hart A Thesis submitted to Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History. © Copyright Rachel L. Hart, 2020 December, 2020, Halifax, Nova Scotia Approved: Dr. S. Karly Kehoe Supervisor Approved: Dr. Heather Green Examiner Approved: Dr. Don Nerbas Examiner Date: 10 December 2020 2 What’s in a name? Scottish Settlement and Land Plot Names and Settler Colonialism in Nineteenth Century Inverness County, Cape Breton. By Rachel L. Hart Abstract 10 December 2020 The application of place names by Scottish colonizers is a well-studied field. However, those studies focus on the identification and classification of such names, with little emphasis on how these names actually came to exist. This thesis provides an in-depth analysis of those that exist in Inverness County, exploring two types of names: those applied to settlements, settlement names; and those applied by individuals to land granted them, land plot names. Through analysis of land petitions, maps, and post office records, this thesis charts the settlement of places that would come to have Scottish names and the emergence of Scottish settlement and land plot names within Inverness County to demonstrate that these names were introduced as a result of large-scale Scottish settlement. This contrasts with the place names that can be found in other parts of the former British Empire such as Australia, New Zealand and even other parts of Canada where Scottish names came to exist as a result of Scottish colonial involvement as administrators, explorers and cartographers.
