Dial 527-0240„ A motion to hire Woods, Gordon and Company, managementconsultants to make a study of the Huron-Perth County Roman Ctholic Separate School Board was narrowly defeated at a meeting of the board in Dublin Monday night. Voting for the motion to hire made by 'David Teahen and seconded by Howard Shantz, both of Stratford, were: Mickey Verc, Ronald Marcy, Mr. Shantz 'and Mr. Teahen, all of Stratford; Joseph Looby of Dublin and Michael Connolly of Kippen. Voting against.the hiring in the recorded vote were: William Kinahan, lucknow; Vineent Young, Goderich; Ted Geoffrey, Zurich Donald Crowley, Gadshill; John O'Drowsky, ' St. Marys.;„. . Gregory Fleming, Creditor': and Francis HiEknell of Seaforth, defeating the motion by orte,vote. The proposal to hire the consulting firm was first brought Up last October, at which time it „was defeated and brought up again two weeks ago when it was tabled until the present meeting. • The proposed study , which was to cost between $8,000 and $9,500, was to clearly define the respective roles of the. board and the senior administration officials; to clearly define , the board's goals arid objectives; to study, the effectiveness of the board's use of committee and how any weaknesses 'in the committee system could be overcome; to determine if the board was being provided with too little or too much information; to decide how effective . the decion-making process is and whether the administrative officials were working within well defined policies and guidelines; to determine what was the most appropriate organizational arrangement , at the senior administrative level to meet the goals and objectives of the board and whether the most effective use was being made of the senior administrwtive staff. Other objectives were to define responsibilities clearly and make sure they arc delegated in a logical manner, covering all areas and to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort; to 'define li nes of authority and reporting relationships clearly; to determine if there are problems in communication and whether the board office is adequately staffed to carry out its responsibilities. . The proposal called for the firm to interview each of the trustees, the director of education, the two sypervisory officers, the businesS administrator c and the co-ordinate'. of maintenance and building, interview a representa- • tive group of principals and .1 teachers (five or six of each) and tO have,,the report completed in six to eight weeks. Speaking against the hiring of ihe firm were Mr. Kinahan who said he was against it and that it would be like throwing away 59 to $10,000; Vincent Young said his ratepayers would determine hoW he made decisions, not a firm of analysts; and before he 'could support it he would .need to know the problems we have we think they can solve". Mr. Crowley said there was no budget for the cost of the firm and that the timing was bad. He suggested doing it another year. Mr. Vere ' said it. was a luxury to hire the firm that the board could not afford it as it was not budgeted for. 4r. O'Drowsky questioned the ethics of advertising for two supprvisory officers and hiring a firm to study their role. Trustee Ted Geoffrey said he- had been informed at a recent Canadian convention of school board members that a consulting firm was of . no value to a board "with our enrolment and our st aff" Director of Education John Vintar said he had no objection to management consultants being engaged since the system .has been in operation for 'seven years and could be reviewed, provided that the role definition of both administration and trustees is included. • ` In ether business Mr. O'Drowsky gave a report in detail on the work done by. the property committee as prepared by Ed. Rowland. Mr. O'Drowslcy said an inventory of all desks, and other furniture and equipment in storage js to be made and a ' deeiSion made by the board as to whether some of it could be sold. Mr. 0 'Drowsky„„commended Mr. Rowland for the splendid manner in which he performs his duties as co-ordinator of maintenance and buildings.
