Three 'grandchildren, chool crowded , Dropping school enrolments in e Huron-Perth Roman Catholic eparate school system may ause problems for Board rustees. The problem is not the ecrease but the distribution. last year there were 2990 ildren enrolled in the , system`; his year there are 2829. The 4% drop is not what concerned rustees at the September 12 eeting of the board in Dublin, ut the fact that it didn't occur enly throughout the schools. The major problem centres around St. Patrick's School in Dublin;, which is overcrowded, and St. Columban a short distance from Dublin, which is experiencing a considerable loss of students. Trustee Ronald Marcy said "We must distribute the children so that full advantage can be made of each school." According o Mt, Marcy, the learning environment is hampered by the overcrowding situation and there may have to be boundary changes made to eleviate this problem. The administration reminded, he board that this is a problem acing nearly every school board n the province and it won't be solved overnight. An upcoming O.S.T.C. confer: ' ence to be held in Toronto has 'designed its program around declining enrolments. Trustee Ronald Murray suggested that members of the board attending that conference report back on the outcome of discussions raised there. "We've got to do something this year so this won't get worse next Srear, even if- it means trucking some students presently attending Dublin to St. Columban."
