The chairman urged as many board members as possible to be present at that meeting to voice any suggestions or criticisms they may have. Bus drivers of board owned buses will receive a raise in pay this school year, Salaries will be raised from $1800 to $1900 for 10 months with spare bus drivers to be paid at the rate of $9,50 per day. Ten day per year sick leave will be granted and all unused sick leave at the end of the school year will be paid at a rate Of $9.50 per day. The board approved a recommendation from D. J. Cochrane, director of education, that education week in Ontario should be held in October rather than in March, The beard reasoned that inclement weather in March hampers full par- ticipation by the parents, The board hassled over whether or not to approve an estimated expenditure of $1290 for a county principals' seminar to be held during September possibly in Grand Bend. The Associate Superintendent in charge of planning, W. D. Kenwell, said that arrangements called for two night's lodging and meals for two days. Discussion centered around the value of staying overnight rather than returning home each evening and reconvening the next morning. Kenwell claimed the trek home each day would "break up the continuity of the seminar": "As much is to be gained by the informal sessions as the formal sessions," said the director. "I don't know what the Good Roads Convention costs the county each year," mused the chairman. Final decision was for the seminar to be held as planned with all expenses for the staff paid by the board. Mrs. Marilyn Kunder suggested that students should be included on the new com- munications committees to be set up this fall with board members and teaching staff working toward better relations. The idea A delegation of interested McKillop Township parents were on hand at Monday evening's meeting of the Huron County Board of Education in Clinton to hear the answers to the questions posed by them at the July session. Although the matter took tip the greater part of.an hour, there was very little new to report on the matter, The parents who were present in the board room in- dicated their desire for half-day kindergarten with the board providing the noon-hour tran- sportation for the children. In reply, the board members reiterated their kindergarten policy which states that any additional transportation other than morning and night bus routes must be provided by the parents and stressed the fact that giving into the wishes of McKillop Township, parents could very likely have county-wide repur- cussions which could cost the taxpayers dearly. The board representative from MeKillop, John Henderson in- troduced the new thought that with the amalgamation of high school, separate school and elementary school buses in the fall, if could mean that some kindergarten students would have to leave home by 8 a.rn„, spend a full day at school and not arrive home until 5 p.m. "Now, as a parent, I wouldn't permit my child to attend kin- dergarten under those con- ditions," stated Henderson. "Would you?" "I would not," agreed Board chairman Bob Elliott, "but I can't see the transportation committee of this board per-• mitting such a timetable. It was agreed that the tran- sportation committee at its meeting this week would study the McKillop situation closely and advise the parents of all kindergarten students in that township by mail concerning its decision about bus routes. Chairman of that committee, Don MacDonald, Walton, said he and his cohorts would endeavour to work out some arrangement MK! department's policy regarding pavement lane markings which will go into effect next year to conform with standards being adopted by most Provinces and States in North America, On two-lane highways the centre line will be yellow and pavement edge lines will be white. On multi-lane undivided high- ways the centre line will be yellow and lane markings and pavement edge lines will be white, On freeways and other divided highways both lane markings and pavement edge lines will be white. Basically, yellow lines will separate traffic flows in opposite directions; white lines separate traffic moving in the same direction; solid yellow lines in- dicate passing is not allowed and solid white lines indicate that lane-changing is not allowed. Under the new system of pavement markings no ad- ditional costs are anticipated.
