the HUB

The Hub is a unique collaboration between School District 8 and community service providers. The Hub provides supports to high school students age 13-18 years old. The Hub is a safe environment where students can access academic support from school counsellors, physical health support from local physicians, and emotional health support from community professionals on campus.

​

The Hub provides clinic days on Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 8:45 to 11:30.  Students are able to book an appointment with a Public Health Nurse on Wednesdays or a Doctor on Thursdays. Counsellors and Outreach Workers are available on Wednesdays and Thursdays to meet with students.  Hub appointments are 20-30 minutes in length after which students return to class.

The Hub’s accessibility encourages students to be more aware of and proactive in managing their personal academic, physical, and emotional health.

​

HUB participants are registered at Kootenay River Secondary School, the Compass Program, or Homelinks in Creston.
