The Huron-Perth County
Roman Catholic Separate School
Board meeting in Seaforth
Monday accepted the fuel oil
tender of Ross Scott Ltd. of
Bruccfield for the year 1974-75 at
a discount of five cents per gallon
off the posted tank wagon price
which at time of tender was 36.9
cents for all schools except
Wingham which is 37.5 cents per
gallon.
Jack Lane, Business
Administrator, said the difference
in price for Wingham was that it
is located in a different provincial
zone.
Ted Geoffrey of Zurich said
that the Scott tender was the
lowest of three. He said it was not
a firm price and will vary when
the refineries adjust their prices,
perhaps later thistPall.
Mrs. Trudy Smith of Zurich
was appointed principal's relief at
Ecole Ste Marie at St. Joseph.
The City of Stratford will be
granted permission to use the
separate schools for the municipal
elections upcoming in December.
Six trustees indicated they
would be able to attend the
Christian Curriculum Develop-
ment Conference in Toronto.
November 1, 2 and 3 --Board
Chairman Michael Connolly of
Kippen, Howard Shantz of
Stratford, John McCann of Ailsa
Craig, Francis Hicknell of
Seaforth, Ted Geoffrey of Zurich
and Oscar Kieffer of Bluevale.
UNICEF officials were given
permission to distribute boxes in
any , separate school under the
board's jurisdiction at Hallowe'en
and St. Joseph's Church was
given permission to hold a C.O.R.
(Christ in Others Retreat)
weekend at St. Michael's School
November 8 - 10.
The sketch plans for the
addition at St. Patrick's School
Kinkora, as presented by Brian
Garratt, architect of Kyles, Kyles
and Garratt, Stratford have been
approved. They have been sent to
the Ministry of Education for
approval.
The board was notified that
three members of the clergy have
been appointed to the Trustee -
Clergy Liaison Committee --Rev.
A. J. Durand of Zurich; Rev.
Gordon Dill of dublin and Rev. V.
J. Gleeson of Stratford,
Commenting on the budget
print-out handed out by Arthur
Haid, chairman of finance
committee, Jack Lane said it was
well within budget expenditures.
Trustees are to study the report at
home and it will be discussed at
next meeting.
Sam Alberico, principal at St.
Michael's School, Stratford, has
been named as representative to
the Ontario Committee for
Education Week.
The Board will write a letter to
the council of Hibbert Township
to ask that top priority be given,
when preparing next year's road
budget, to building a bridge on
side road 20-21, concession two of
Hibbert. Because the bridge is
posted to a limited load, the board
is unable to use the road when
transporting school students as a
school bus exceeds the restricted
weight. The board must pay for
an additional nine miles travelled
each day and this is costing
money, Donald Crowley,
transportation committee
chairman, said.
Howard Shantz, of Stratford,
asked that the Family Life
Advisory Committee, which is
studying the report of the pilot
project on teaching the Family
Life program to Grade 8 students
last spring, be prepared to report
back to the board soon. He said
he hoped to see the same
program implemented to Grade
seven pupils as well as Grade 8
this year. Francis Hicknell, a
member of the Family Life
Advisory Committee, said he
thought a report could be ready
for the November meeting.
The Board prepared a policy
covering school custodians,
giving consideration to the
selection and supervision of
custodial staff and the
maintenance of co-operation and
communication among the
principal and staff, the custodian
and the board office. The policy
covers the hiring, the training,
the supervision of duties,
maintaining the school buildings
and premises in a proper sanitary
condition, communication links
for custodians and the rules for
dismissal if necessary for breach
of contract.
The meeting adjourned shortly
before midnight.
HPRCSS
Board sets custodian policy
available in Listowel because of a
lack of facilities. The Test Room is
also used as a Board Room,
available for meetings,
conferences Or employer
interviews.
Another new feature is the
Creative Job Search Technique
program which will be offered
later in the fall. This program
assists workers who have
continued to experience difficulty
in obtaining employment for a
long period of time.Success
stories from other places where
the course has been offered are
impressive.
The usual programs of
Institutional and Industrial
Training, Mobility of Workers,
etc., are being expanded in
an attempt to present a new and
vigorous image in Listowel and
