(By .Wilma Oke) No action was taken Tuesday night by the Huron-Perth County Roman Catholic Separate Board on a motion to -hire a firm of management consultants to assess the administrative needs of the board but was tabled until the June 14 meeting. The motion made by David Teahen and seconded by Howard Shantz, both Stratford trustees, had originally asked to hire the firm to investigate the duties opf the administrative staff, and :to establish the sequirements. As Mr. Teahen and Mir. Shantz both stated the firm of consultants approached by them had indicated it would be necessary to interview five trustees to evaluate the job description as well' as the five members of the administration involved 'in order to be fair. Mr. Shantz said, "Trustees should have input as to what is needed. With joe (Superintendent of Special Education Joseph Tokar) quitting we have a golden opportunity to assess the position." When it became evident that the 'motion would not be supported in its • narrow outline, the two trustees agreed to reshape their motion that the firm be hired to assess the administrative needs of the board. Joseph Looby of Dublin said: "With something to cost $5000 to $6000, we should have more time to find out what kind of report the firm would provide." Mr. Teahen replied that a spokesman from the firm had mentioned a cost of $4,500 with the promise that some further discussion could be held on the cost. On Mr. Looby's motion to table the motion a recorded vote was requested by Mr. Teahen resulting in the motion to table being supported by Michael Connolly, Joseph Looby, Ronald Marcy, Francis Hicknell; Vincent Young, Mickey Vere and Ted Geoffrey and opposed by David Teahen, Howard Shantz, William Kinahan, Gregory Fleming and John O'Drowsky. A presentation on Special • Education was made by Superintendent Joseph Tokar and consultants. Mrs.Gladys Talbot and Miss Mary Flannery. The presentation . which took an hour and a half covered the whole program provided by the board which has five full time itinerant teachers, four part-time teachers and one special class 'in Stratford covering , it, backed up by psychological services in Stratford, Goderich and 'London. These teachers do remedial work and teach slow learners and those with specific learning disabilities. 145 pupils in the system at the present time require special education.
