Principal’s Message
It really is amazing what the longer days, brighter skies and freshness in the air can do to clear ones mind and
rejuvenate energy. Not that there is ever a lack of “energy” at Argyle – to be sure, the activities of the winter
months are as numerous and enthusiastic as in the fall and spring, it is just a general outlook that often comes as
the days are extended both morning and evening.
During this past year, the staff has engaged in conversation about what we hope for our students once they
graduate as well as learning more about how we support the mental health of our students, and ourselves. I
think we can all agree that there is an intensified focus in the media on the rising stress levels of teenagers – and
with good reason. As parents, teachers and adults we often wonder what has changed in the world that has seen
an incremental rise in the level of STRESS that is exhibited by our students. I’m not sure what has changed but
I do know that we need to respond to the new realities that exist.
As teachers we are very cognizant that we have a degree of influence with students and we naturally want that
to be a positive and supportive influence. So how do we navigate the path of guiding students to what we hope
for them in the future and be mindful of their mental wellbeing at the same time?
Mental Health Literacy is the concept of both learning what we really mean by words that are widely used in
society and learning how we can better differentiate our supports for individual students – that has been a focus
for our staff and student groups this year. The premise is that if we talk about mental health, we reduce a
stigma that often prevents early identification and impedes early intervention.
Here are three terms we have learned, as shared in the article “Thinking Critically About Meeting Mental
Health Needs of Youth”, written by Dr. Stan Kutcher that can help us channel our support efforts:
Mental Distress – Mental Health Problem – Mental Disorder/Illness
Kutcher reminds us that mental distress is common; everyone goes through some degree of mental distress
almost daily. It is not usually prolonged and does not substantively interfere with life past the short time
difficulties. Mental distress is a signal that we need to adapt circumstances and Kutcher would say that it is
triggered by environmental factors. To deal with distress we use learned skills: we find supportive people,
problem-solve, and apply trial and error. “Failure and adversity are common factors that elicit distress. We
learn to be resilient by successfully dealing with failure and adversity.” We do not need to shelter students
from distress, we do not need to “treat” distress; we need to teach skills that helps them learn how to manage
natural stress so they can grow and develop into the adults we hope they will become.
“A mental health problem is different. It is a signal that adaptation is failing, either because of factors
inherent in the individual or factors in the environment.” When young people cannot cope and use their
skills effectively to reduce the emotional pain or stress level, their lives can be more affected for a longer
period of time. A mental health problem is often a result of extraordinary and sometimes traumatic events
beyond their control and may require the support of trained counselors. With early intervention that
acknowledges the physical symptoms, further personal proficiencies can be developed to manage the
stress. But it can take time to manage the problem and we might have to be intentionally patient.
Then there is a mental disorder, which is “distinguished by meeting internationally recognized medical
diagnostic criteria and is characterized by syndromal identification always associated with substantial and
prolonged impairment of functioning in most parts of life.” Mental disorders are complex and require
treatment by trained health professionals. But they need not be stigmatized – the more we know about
them, the better we can direct students and families in their quest for mental health support.
So what can we do?
Well, we can realize that mental distress, mental problems and mental disorders do not exist in a
continuum and that people do not commonly pass from one state to another. We can gain and share
knowledge so that the perceived stigma starts to dissipate. We can use language that is informed and
accurate. We can seek professional advice when necessary. And we can teach and support the skills that
we all need to employ to the events of life that come our way.
As a staff at Argyle, we hope our students will develop into healthy, informed and productive adults. Yes,
we teach subject matter but we mostly teach people; we do that best by caring and by being in partnership
with each other, parents and the community.

HOMELESS BACKPACKS
Last year, Student Council held a successful charity drive called “Backpacks for the Homeless”. This
year, we are proud to bring it back! The idea: to fill a backpack with basic necessities such as soap,
toothbrushes, towels, socks, and more to give to someone in need. During period 2, Student Council
members presented to classes about the issue of homelessness in Metro Vancouver. Referring to the
checklist given, classes were challenged to fill up a backpack with as items as possible. With this
initiative (all proceeds will go to the North Shore Lookout Society), Argyle is graced with the
opportunity to be able to give back to people in the community and help lower the rate of homelessness.
Further note, if you have an extra backpack please consider donating to our cause! Thank you.
Isabelle Cheung, President of Students' Council
What we are doing:
Providing backpacks filled with goods for homeless people for the North Shore Lookout Shelter.
What is homeless?
By definition it is someone with unstable, unaffordable, or inadequate housing. For Example: People
living on the streets, living in their car, couch surfing, etc.
There are 3 types of homeless:
1. Visible homeless: people one see in the streets
2. Hidden homeless: live in overcrowded conditions, substandard housing, need core housing, live in
inadequate housing, or have unaffordable housing
3. At risk homeless: people who are not currently homeless, but are in an economic or housing situation
that does not meet public health and safety conditions.
What are the main causes of Homelessness:
1. Lack of economic equality
2. Government Policy
3. Lack of affordable housing
4. Lack of support systems
Statistics for Vancouver:
Total homeless: 2,777
Adults and unaccompanied youth 2689
Accompanied Children 88
Approx. 219 children under 19
1,864 Aboriginal counting for 31% of homeless people
15% of total homeless live with a mental health issue
Number of homeless people has increased by 5% since 2011
AWARD WINNERS AT VANCOUVER MODEL UNITED NATIONS
It's true. Diplomacy doesn't happen on the sidelines, you have to be
willing to wade in and roll up your sleeves to tackle difficult problems
like a diplomat.
At the end of January, delegates from Argyle Secondary, Handsworth
Secondary and Sutherland Secondary joined the Vancouver Model
United Nations to debate topics and come up with solutions to solve
some of the world's major crises. This year's theme, "Diplomacy is
not a spectator sport" was tested over three intense days, as the
students learned first-hand what it means to construct diplomatic
solutions to challenging situations.

delegates & Argyle Secondary students
Two students from Argyle Secondary, Jacob Muir and Nick Sheffield, received special recognition for their
contributions to this year's Model UN. Muir achieved an Honorable mention for his position paper representing
the Russian Federation on the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime committee. And for his role
representing Uruguay, Sheffield received the highest award in the program, the Best Delegate & Gavel.
TIME FOR A CHANGE
When it comes to teaching a familiar subject, the old saying
“a change is as good as a rest” becomes truer as time goes
by. The world we live in today, with its ever-increasing
dependence on technology, has affected learning styles
and teaching practices everywhere that you can connect
a mobile device. The way we’re wired, and the way we
learn has changed dramatically in 20 years, and that calls
for changes in teaching practice. But change is no easy
feat to master. It works best when the benefits outweigh the
challenges.

After more than 20 years teaching with very traditional methods, Argyle Secondary Spanish teacher Steve Bruno
was inspired to transform his practice. The results? An energetic and dynamic new method that keeps students
engaged, contributing and learning what they really need to know.
“Students are learning differently than they were 28 years ago,” says Bruno, thinking back to his early days as a
teacher. Thanks to the advances in technology, the world has become a smaller place, and students no longer want
to learn about a language as much as they do how to acquire it.
Bruno is the first teacher at Argyle to switch over to a method known as Teaching Proficiency Through Reading
and Storytelling—TPRS for short. Similar to the way a child learns their first language, the TPRS method aims to
encourage students to speak, read and write a foreign language by using a holistic approach that allows students to
express themselves without worrying about grammar rules or memorizing lists of irrelevant vocabulary.
After observing other teachers using the method in their classrooms and during workshops, Bruno was astounded
by the difference in both student engagement and written output. “As a teacher I was feeling a little stale, in part
because of how students were responding,” says Bruno. “I stumbled upon the workshop—it was the first time I
had ever heard of it—and after trying it out myself, I saw what the kids were able to say and write in Spanish, and
I was sold.”
Just as its name suggests, TPRS utilizes storytelling and story-asking to teach the material. “It varies, but a given
story can take two to three classes to finish,” Bruno explains. The stories aim to keep the students engaged and
allow a certain degree of personalization, since the stories skew off in different directions depending on the
suggestions the students offer. Students individualize the stories through volunteering to act, as well as
contributing ideas for the characters. “The fun thing is that I’ve had students suggest everything from Barack
Obama to the band AFI (A Fire Inside) and that’s what makes it so engaging. The students retain the material
because they can associate with these references.”
While storytelling is the bread and butter of TPRS, Bruno uses a myriad of Spanish media to “expand students’
language skills”. In addition to storytelling, students prepare skits, read and translate novels, and practice their
written comprehension by retelling short stories in the form of comics and paragraphs. Homework consists of
constant review of the vocabulary, and tests are their memory the next day.
Although Bruno initially intended to use TPRS for his Grade 9 classes only, the results convinced him to expand
the method to all grades. Anxiety levels in his classroom have dropped as engagement levels skyrocketed;
understanding of the material has dramatically improved, and students are advancing at a quicker rate. “In
transforming my practice, I’ve learned that students don’t have to know the Spanish name of every animal, every
city…” says Bruno. “If you focus instead on high-frequency words and master them, you can go anywhere in the
Spanish-speaking world.”
Argyle’s principal, Elizabeth Bell, could not be more pleased by the results. “To me, personalization in the
classroom isn’t just about various learning styles, it’s also about teaching styles. The change for Mr. Bruno and
his students is remarkable. His energy is driven by his passion as a storyteller and he has managed to tap into that
passion and channel it into great teaching and learning.”
Bruno’s success has paved the way for other teachers to dabble in TPRS. His colleague, Kim Abdurahman, one of
Argyle’s French teachers, has followed suit, and Bruno has presented a TPRS workshop to his peers. “I have
received enormous support from the administration, particularly our principal,” says Bruno. “I love coming to
work, and the kids want to be here; they love coming to class. As a teacher I feel reborn—I enjoy it because I can
see the kids are enjoying it, too.”
LIBRARY
Argyle has “stellar” readers! Once again our students have been asked to read and review novels for B.C.’s Teen
Readers’ Choice Stellar Award. Our readers are currently short listing titles for the 2016 award. The students
have completed over 90 reviews so far! As a teacher/librarian I enjoy seeing the cooperation and community
involvement of our teens with a larger group from the lower mainland. Thanks to the District of North Vancouver
Public Library for supplying all the books!

Freedom to Read Week
February 22 – 28th is Freedom to Read Week in Canada. We celebrate in the school library by
displaying and discussing banned and challenged books. Many students don’t realize that books are still
pulled from library shelves every year in our country because of censorship.
This year I’ve been reading The Stamp Collector by Jennifer
Lanthier to a number of English classes as an introduction to
the power of words. It’s a beautiful picture book that’s
illustrated by Francois Thisdale and designed for both
children and adults. The message is powerful and I don’t
know anyone who doesn’t enjoy being read to! It’s even
better when the book’s won a number of international awards
and delivers a wonderful message.
If you’d like to see our library web page on this topic and get
more information about the book, please go to

Argyle Jazz in festival!
This year we had numerous Argyle Jazz Band students participate in small combo entries in the local jazz band
festivals. At the Kiwanis Jazz Festival, which is held at Capilano University Feb 11-13, 2015, we had a Jr. Combo
group entry consisting of: Mark Pretash, Alec Ash-Roberts, Timothy Skuse, Quinn Ferbers, Alex Zaperniuk, and
Theo Derban. They work with local renowned Trumpet teacher Adrian Smith on a weekly basis. They had a very
successful performance.
In the Sr. Category, Evan Gratham and David Hodgson entered with an “inter- school” combo. This combo won
“Most Inspiring Jazz Group” of the festival!
These two talented musicians also entered two separate combos in the Envision Jazz festival at the Bell Centre for
Performing Arts on Feb 21, 2015.
David won "Best Junior Saxophonist" and Evan won "Best Senior Bassist". Evan Gratham also competed against
the top high school and university musicians in the province recently and just won the prestigious Fraser
MacPherson Scholarship.
Huge congratulations to our fine student musicians on their great accomplishments!
Gr. 9 Band and Choir Vernon tour 2015
This year we had 80 participants in the Gr. 9 Band and Choir travel to Vernon, BC from Jan 14-16. Our annual
trip is meant to share music with the elementary schools in Vernon and generate interest in band and choral music
for the students. We had some extremely receptive audiences and some amazing cowbell playing from both Mr.
Edgar and the Gr. 1 and 2 volunteers he corralled.
We once again had some amazing performances and created many wonderful memories while playing music and
enjoying the winter weather at Silverstar Mountain! Thanks to the amazing team of chaperones who give up their
time to make this trip a success: Mr. Edgar, Mr. Lockless, Ms. Reid, Ms. McDonald, Ms. Jonat. We couldn’t do it
without you!
Jr. Percussion Workshop
We recently had a guest workshop with percussionist David DiTomaso for our junior percussionists. They spent
an hour learning the fundamentals of snare drum, drum kit, bell kit, and tympani playing. They also spent time
honing their basic techniques to become even stronger musicians. Thanks for all the inspiration and help David!
More workshops with music clinicians will coming up for different sections of the band so stay tuned!
Banff – Canadian Rocky Mountain Festival coming up!
Every second year in April, we take as many of our Sr. Band and Choir students as possible to an amazing festival
in the Rocky Mountains. It is a national level festival where they not only perform and get an amazing

Junior Girls Basketball – Won North Shore Championship
Senior Girls Basketball – Finished 5th at the Provincial Championship
Juvenile Boys Basketball – 2nd at V&D’s and finished 12th at Provincial Invitational
Gymnastics – Won Boys North Shore Championship
Finished 5th at the Provincial Championships
Cheer - Won numerous tournaments
Wrestling – Four students competing at Provincials
Thank-you to all the coaches and sponsors for their countless hours of work! Without these great individuals we would not be able to supply such a
great athletic program for our student-athletes.
WRESTLING: The wrestling team just completed another successful season with 6 members of the team qualifying for the BC High School Provincial
Championships. Medals were a strong possibility for both Eric Fast and Hamish Pye but unfortunately they finished just off the podium, placing 7th in the
Province in their weight classes. Second year wrestler, Troy Martell, had a very strong season finishing 1st at the qualifiers. This is a great accomplishment
given his young age and the fact that most competitors in his weight class are senior athletes. The team will be saying goodbye to 5 year standout, Cole
Christiansen who was a pre-season favourite to win gold at the Provincials but was unable to recover in time from a season-ending knee injury. Cole has
won medals at Previous BC High School Championships placing 4th and 2nd. The team and coaches will definitely miss his passion, leadership and
commitment to excellence!
Senior Girls Basketball
Congratulations to our Senior Girls Basketball team for capturing the North Shore AAA title last week. The girls
won a hotly contested final match versus Handsworth, 54-49. Smart, solid defense was key to the win. Look for
more action as the Pipers continue in the Lower Mainland Crehan Cup this week, working toward earning a berth
at the Provincial Championships in March.

GRADUATION EVENTS AT ARGYLE
Parent Seminar
As you know, navigating the post-secondary world is not easy. With endless program options, differing
admission requirements, and financial worries the process can be stressful, to say the least. There are
many services available to help students through the process, but parents are sometimes left out of the
loop. This is why we've decided to offer Parent Seminars: an evening just for parents to gather
information, ask questions, and alleviate some of the confusion regarding post-secondary education.
Our event will include:
· An introduction to the world of post-secondary education in BC
· Understanding career pathways
· Changing roles for parents
· The financial side of post-secondary
· The ins and outs of applications
This event will take place on Tuesday, March 24th at the Coquitlam Campus, and Thursday, March
26th at the New Westminster Campus, from 7:00pm-9:00pm. To register, parents can visit
http://www.douglascollege.ca/parent-seminar.
Ideas Summer Experience
Can high school students change the world in 2 weeks? It is no secret that society is faced with big problems –
both global and local. But these big problems have not met the big ideas of your students!
The IDEAS Summer Experience allows international students to learn about big ideas and to study at the
University of Waterloo, ranked as Canada’s most innovative university for the past 23 years.
Students will take part in academic and social activities, live in a university residence, and gain experience to help
them prepare for their post-secondary education.
If you have enthusiastic, creative, and academically-driven students who wish to study in Canada this summer, the
program runs from July 12 until July 26, 2015. The application deadline is March 20th.
If you have questions about the IDEAS Summer Experience, please contact us at [email protected]
Grad Photo Retakes
Grad photo retakes can be booked for March 5th. Register @ http://www.mountainwest.ca/
LPI Exam – April 16, 2015 at Argyle
Registrations for the LPI is required online at https://secure.paragontesting.ca/LpiReg/. The LPI is used as a
screening exam to help identify those students in need of extra writing or language instruction before they take a
post-secondary English course for credit. All BC universities and most BC colleges require the LPI or their own
equivalents placement exam if English 12 marks are not high enough (see individual post-secondary language
requirements for details).

Getting Greener: Organic Waste Disposal And Schools
February 2015
As you likely know, the Metro-Vancouver-wide effort to keep food scraps out of the landfill is now in full gear.
All schools are expected to fully comply with Metro Vancouver's organic waste disposal ban. To do this, School
District 44 is preparing to roll out new, compartmentalized waste receptacles in all our schools later this spring.
“Organics only”, “Waste Only”, “Mixed Recyclables” and “Paper” will each receive a designated bin to simplify
sorting.
From apple cores to pizza boxes, by keeping organic waste out of the landfill, Metro Vancouver expects to
achieve an overall 70% recycling rate in 2015, and up to 80% by the year 2020. By diverting organics from the
landfill, methane, a potent greenhouse gas, will be reduced in the atmosphere (deprived of adequate oxygen to
promote the decay process, food waste rotting in landfills produces methane). Even better is the boost to
agriculture that will come from this new source of compost.
At Argyle, we began this program last year and we already have some receptacles located in hallways and high
traffic areas that allow for staff, students and even visitors to send waste in the right direction. Through the
District program, we will increase our number of receptacles in the spring. We certainly applaud our Green Club
students who have spearheaded this initiative at Argyle.
Educational materials are being developed to help everyone understand the importance and necessity of this
initiative. We do recognize that this represents a change in habits and behaviours, but we hope that with
everyone’s support, the transition happening all over the Lower Mainland will be straightforward in our schools.
As noted above, the Metro Vancouver ban makes it mandatory to keep organics waste out of the landfill, and we
want to avoid any possible penalties that could be imposed down the road for non-compliance.
Thank you for your support!
