BUSINESS PLAN GOAL: N/A BACKGROUND: On June 22, 2011, Board Member Kirk Arsenault provided the following notice of motion: WHEREAS the naming of a school after Edward Cornwallis is deeply offensive to members of our Mi'kmaq communities and to Nova Scotians generally who believe school names should recognize persons whose contributions to society are unblemished by acts repugnant to the values we wish our schools to embody and represent; and WHEREAS Edward Cornwallis, as Governor of Nova Scotia, authorized the killing of Mi’kmaq persons, including women and children, and offered a bounty for such killing, this board finds the naming of a public school after him to be inappropriate and unacceptable; and WHEREAS the Native Council of Nova Scotia, representing the off- reserve Mi'kmaq communities of Nova Scotia, has unanimously passed a motion requesting that the name of the school be changed; and WHEREAS the policy of the Halifax Regional School Board, Code A.001 "Naming School Facilities" , specifies in clause 5.0 that "When a school and/or a community group wishes to rename a school facility a rationale for a change must be approved by the Board prior to the initiation of the process;" BE IT RESOLVED that the Halifax Regional School Board advise the Cornwallis Junior High School Community, through its Principal, that the name of the school is no longer acceptable to the Board and the Board invites the community to propose an alternative name for the school. It was moved and seconded (Arsenault/Cameron) that the Board advise the Cornwallis Junior High School Community, through its Principal, that the name of the school is no longer acceptable to the Board and the Board invites the community to propose an alternative name for the school. (CARRIED) CONTENT: A consultation process was followed within the guidelines outlined by the Board. An overview of the process and supporting details are attached. COST: N/A FUNDING: N/A TIMELINE: The new name for the school will be in effect for opening in September 2012. APPENDICES: Appendix A: Renaming Process Appendix B: Recommendation for the Renaming of Cornwallis Junior High School RECOMMENDATIONS: The School Advisory Council recommends that the Board approve the renaming of Cornwallis Junior High School as “Halifax Central Junior High School”. COMMUNICATIONS: Forwarded to the Department of Education after Board approval. From: For further information please contact Danielle McNeil-Hessian, Director – School Administration by way of email at [email protected]. To: Senior Staff January 9, 2012 Board January 25, 2012 Filename: Senior Staff Report.Halifax Central Junior High Date:: 6 January 2012 Appendix A Renaming Process for Cornwallis Junior High School On December 5, 2011 the Cornwallis Junior High School Advisory Council met to review the submissions received and to reach an agreement on a recommendation of a new name for the school. The council members did a complete review of all the submissions and consensually agreed upon that one name be recommended to the Halifax Regional School Board. The recommendation was reached in the following manner: There were 132 individual submissions and School Advisory Council members were given time to read all of the submissions. To assist in their reading of the submissions, booklets were make available which grouped duplicate submissions. When all members announced that they had completed the reading, then the next phase of the meeting proceeded. All Council members were then asked to put a forward their three top selections including the rationale for the choice. From this exercise, a short list of potential names was created. These selections were open to discussion by all members. The selections were either geographic in nature which included landmarks or personal in nature with most being personal names of individuals. The discussion that followed eliminated the personal names of individuals and this was based on the decision of the School Board to remove the name Cornwallis from the school. The name of any individual may be subject to future scrutiny which might make it inappropriate for the name of a school. The geographic names were discussed and the council members eliminated those names which they felt did not best identify the location of the school and its catchment area. The potential names for selection was reduced to four and these included; Founders Junior High School, Cornwall Junior High School, Preston Street Junior High School and Halifax Central Junior High School. A map of the Halifax Peninsula and school catchment area was used as part of the selection process. The school is almost exactly located in the centre of the Halifax Peninsula including its surrounding catchment area. Council members also noted that many recent new school names selected in both our board and other school boards have been geographic in nature (i.e. Bedford South School). It was agreed that Halifax Central Junior School would be the School Advisory Council recommendation as it best described our location and would serve the school well without any future need to be changed due to any controversy. Names Submitted Total – 132 Names Vincent Coleman Junior High Coleman Junior High School SS Mont -Blanc Jubilee Junction Junior High Preston St. Junior High South Central Junior High Halifax South Junior High South End Junior High Halifax Central Junior High Central Junior High Queen Elizabeth Junior High Campbell Junior High Pierre Trudeau Junior High Sir John David Sparrow Thompson Junior High Kim Campbell Junior High C.V.

  • Probable Middle Carboniferous NW-SE Faulting in the Musquodoboit Valley, Nova Scotia, Canada
    Probable Middle Carboniferous NW-SE faulting in the Musquodoboit Valley, Nova Scotia, Canada HOWARD V. DONOHOE JR.1, HEATHER J. CROSS2, AND PAUL BATSON3 1. Department of Geology, Saint Mary’s University, 923 Robie Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 3C3, Canada <[email protected]> 2. Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada 3. APGNS, P.O. Box 91, Main Stn, Enfield, Nova Scotia B2T 1C6, Canada The search for potable groundwater has led to more information about post-Early Carboniferous NW-SE faulting in the Musquodoboit Valley. Scouts Canada’s Camp Nedooae located several kilometres north of Elderbank, Nova Scotia, needed several wells for an additional water source. Previous geological maps of the area do not suggest NW-SE faulting. The Valley in this location has a relatively thick cover of till and very few outcrops so knowledge of the bedrock is based on extrapolation from limited outcrops and relatively uncomplicated structure. The camp location was thought to be near a Goldenville Group basement high just to the north. Gently south- dipping Windsor Group shale, evaporite and limestone lie unconformably on the older rocks. Instead of finding the base of the Windsor Group and the unconformity, the first well (east block), 0.5 km southeast of Brown Lake was collared in Goldenville Group. The second well, 0.6 km west, was collared in gypsum and bottomed in limestone/dolostone with interlayers of gypsum. No fossils fragments were found anywhere in the well cuttings. We now surmise that the east block moved up and the west block moved down. With this knowledge of the bedrock and some topographic trends, we now believe NW-SE faulting has played a greater role in rock distribution in the Valley.

ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY STUDENTS, NSCC WATERFRONT CAMPUS Jenna Jones, Makayla Jamieson NSCC ENTG Students 401-17 Portland Street, Dartmouth, NS B2Y 1H1 (778)-918-2824, (902)-483-4625 September 13, 2016 NSCC, Waterfront Campus 80 Mawiomi Place Dartmouth, NS B2Y 0A5 Faculty of the Environmental Engineering Program: Groundwater is a very sensitive part of the hydrologic cycle, particularly in Nova Scotia. Currently in Nova Scotia, information and analysis on ground water is remarkably limited. This information is vital when considering the population that is dependent on groundwater. Currently one program dedicated to the monitoring of groundwater is the Groundswell program, run by the Ecology Action Center. By partnering with the EAC to work on Groundswell, we will uncover more information on HRM’s groundwater. Groundswell is a community based groundwater monitoring network that enables the community to monitor groundwater levels from 8 different wells in the HRM. Data from these wells gets collected by community groups and volunteers, and is then processed. This data can be used to find trends, and used for industrial and domestic development plans. Currently the program has de-escalated; data is not being loaded or processed, wells are not being assessed, and the EAC lacks the man power for these tasks. Larissa Holman, freshwater project coordinator of the EAC has agreed to offer assistance in our study and contribution to the Groundswell program. We met to discuss the program, which involves bringing it back to life, enriching current information, performing well inspections, and adding more QAQC controls to the program.
