Joseph Mills, 38, of Burlington, formerly with the Dufferin- Peel County Roman Catholic Separate School Board, will replace Joseph Tokar as Super- intendent of Special Services, William Eckert, 38, of Brant- ford, formerly with the Brant County Roman ,Catholic Separate School Board will replace Alexan- der Easton as Superintendent of Program. Mr. Mills, a native of Lindsay, and Mr. Eckert, a native of Seaforth, will commence their duties with the board effective September 1, 1976, both at an annual salary of $31,000. In the recorded vote (requested by Stratford trustee, David Tea- hen) the board chairman Arthur Haid of Listowel left the chair to vote on the two motions made to hire the two superintendents. Mr. Haid said that his reason for voting was to ensure that the programs started by Mr. Tokar and Mr. Easton would be continued for the children from Kindergarten to Grade 8 in the 19 separate schools in Huron and Perth Counties-. The recorded vote on the first motion to hire Mr. Mills was as follows: For: John O'Drowsky, St. Marys; Mickey Vere and Ronald Marcy both of Stratford; Greg Fleming, Crediton; Vincent Young, Goderich; William Kina- han, Wingham; Ted Geoffrey, Zurich and Board Chairman, Arthur Haid, Opposed: David Teahen and Howard. Shantz, both of Stratford; Francis Hick- nell, Seaforth; Michael Con- nolly, Kippen; and Joseph Looby, The recorded vote on the second motion to hire Mr. Eckert was; For: O'Drowsky, Vere, Fleming, Marcy, Looby, Young, Connolly, Kinahan, Geoffrey, Haid and Hicknell, Opposed: Teahen and Shantz. Mr. Teahen, the only trustee to voice his objections to the hiring of the two superintendents in the general meeting before the press, said "he objected to the hiring of two people to 'the super- intendent's position at once as our board now has a special services unit operating with nine people involved, one of whom has ministry certification in special education: (2) because of declining enrolment, grant struc- tures and the fact that this will give us a supervisory officer for each 1,000 children; (3) on top of not attempting to use our own qualified staff a .decision to hire a second superintendent for $31,000 when he was making $24,500 as a principal, is out- rageous." Mr. Teahen concluded: "The recorded vote speaks for the trus- tees concerned." Stratford trustee Ron Marcy said: "It is cheaper to' hire two supervisory officers than to go bad( to the time when we only had one superintendent and two consultants." Mr. Marcy said that certifi- cation in special education does not qualify a person for a super- visory position. In answer to Mr. Looby who reported .he had been questioned c OPEN NOW!
