History
In 1884, the provincial government created four City School Districts including the Nanaimo School District. The City Council was responsible for the regulation of School Board elections, and assisted in the management of its finances, including the annual audit. Other City records document the work of the School Board: Council minutes, City Clerk's correspondence, bylaws, assessment rolls, sinking fund accounts, and the audited financial statements. In 1946, recommendations of the Cameron Report were implemented in the Public Schools Amendment Act, and School District No.68 (Nanaimo) was created.
