Joseph Mills, 38, of Burlington, formerly with the Dufferin-Peel County Roman Catholic Separate School Board, will replace Joseph Tokar as Superintendent of Special Services. William Eckert, 38, of Brantford, formerly with the Brant County Roman Catholic Separate School Board will replace Alexander Easton as Superintendent of Program. Mr. Mills, a native of Lindsay, and Mr. Eckert, a native of Seaforth, will start 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 Teahen) the board chairman, Arthur Haid of Listowel left the chair to vote on the two motions made to hire the two superinten- dents. 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 Kinahan, Wingham; Ted Geoffrey, Zurich and Board Chairman, Arthur Haid. Opposed: David Teahen and Howard Shantz, both of Stratford; Francis Hicknell, Seaforth; he was making $24,500 as principal, is outrageous." Mr. Teahen concluded: "The recorded vote speaks for the trustees concerned." Stratford trustee Ron Marcy said: "It is cheaper to hire two supervisory officers than to go back to the time when 'we only had one superintendent and two consultants." Mr. Marcy said that certification in special education does not qualify a person for a supervisory position. Mrs. Sheila Jankowski was hired as a Grade 1 teacher for Our Lady of Mount Carmel School at (Continued from Page 1) a County Steering Committee, composed of staff - and administrators of the present health and 'social service organizations, along with interested professional and representive citizens, has met over the last four months to examine The gaps in mental heatlh and other specialized services for children and youth. An operating philosophy, and a generalized outline of services has been developed and diagnostic and treatment program will start during the Fall of this year and into 1977. Throughout the deliberations, and policy considerations of the County Steering Committee, stress has been placed on the need for a cooperative and integrated service venture among present health and welfare agencies and professionals. They plan a community team approach to treatment involving both the new Centre staff and present Dashwood, effective September, 1976. In answer to Mr. Looby- who reported he had been questioned following the newspaper report of the last board meeting in July with regard to rates paid to hoard owned bus drivers, Jack Lane, superintendent of business, said the rate paid to those drivers who provide the regular morning and afternoon service includes a care allowance for each driver. These drivers are responsible for the interior and exterior cleaning and general maintenance to comply with ministry of transportation and communications standards. /resources so as to best utilize the Health Ministry funding which has been made available. It is anticipated that the new service will emphasize programs geared to working with children and adolescents within their families, assistance to the child experiencing difficulties in the education system, team assessment approach for all referrals to the Centre, individual and group treatment, and preventataive programme paraticularly aimed at the pre-school population. While no firm commitment has been made, it is anticipated that the- administrative headquarters for the new Centre will be located in Clinton so as to provide accessibility to as many people as possible in the County. The Steering Committee has arranged a public meeting for Wednesday, September 1, 1976 at 7:30 p.m., at the Clinton Public School to acquaint all interested people with the proposed service.
