children who can cope with
the schoolwork and she said
someday the Huron Centre
for Children and Youth might
have a residential class at
their agency.
In speaking' about WOrking
with children, and the
necessity for a partnership
between, ageneies and par-
ents, •D'r.Flard .' pointed out
ills only ,since` 1969 that
boards of education in Ont-
Eltio have taken over the
financial 'responsibility for
educating the educable
mentally retarded. Before
then, the superintendent
said, this group of children
didn't enjoy thi! right to an
education .
Dr. Hardy added today
mandatory eduCation legis-
lation, which guarantees
every Child has .the right to
an edueation; .exists only in.

kin provinces:
She Said other provinces,
Ontario included, 'tinder
no compulsion to provide
education for the handi-
capped, since these provincl..'s
still have permissive
lotion regarding education.
RevolutionS
In her speech,-the super-
intendent said a number of
social revolutions have
changed. ehilcIrens' place in
society.
For example, the social
'network between families
once found in -111tili. rural
communities or ill the (‘‘.-
tended family, is ;,one. I he
replacement for families \\ ho
may need, help is "an
extended support system like
the Huron Centre for Child-
ren and Youth offers."
Dr. Hardy said education
has also changed over the
years and today society looks
to the school for far more
t.•
than the 3 ft's, She said
schools are expected to be
involved in guidance.
councelling students on an
individual basis and family
life studies, as well as other
programs
Another recent change
pointed out by. the speaker,
was the provincial govern-'
meat's decision to bring
most services dealing with
children under one ministry
the Ministry of Family and
Childrens' Services. Dr.
Hardy said the only ehildrens
service which doesn't fall
under the umbrella is the
ministry of education. Dr.
Hardy said she expects it w ill
come under the same mini-
stry sometime during her
career.
The superintendent said
the relationship between
students and teachers has
also changed in recent years..
Dr, Hardy said anyone who
haS Visited'seeondary schools
lately will .discover students
now- have .."a nice, easy
relationship with teachers."
Obliged
Dr.. Hardy said one prob-
lem the school system faces
that social agencies do not, is
that "We (the schools) are
obliged to deal with all the
children whether we want
them or not." Dr. Hardy
explained rnztny private
social agencies will take a
case involving children only
if the parents arc willing to
co-operate in helping the
child and working with
agency staff. The same
option doesn't exist for
schoOls.
The superintendent said
however, the London school
board is having "tremendous
luck' with both parent
volunteers who work in the
schools and volunteers from
other agencies, like Fan ,:
shawe college, who help
with students,
She also advocated peer
tutoring or cross-age tutoring
whereby children- in the
school help each other, really
an "extension of playing
teacher" which gives the
children some experience in
parenting.
Dr, Hardy said, centres like
the Huron Centre for Child-
ren and Youth wouldn't be
needed if "we could help
children develop a good
sense. about themselves.'.'
However, she said this is a
long, slow process since most
parents raise their children
in the same way they were
raised themselves.
But. Dr. Hardy said, the
real key to working with
children is "a base of
support in the home. ••

THE NEXT ELECTION...
for municipal councils and school boards
will be three weeks early this year.
It will take place throughout Ontario
on Monday, November 13,1978.
This earlier date means that the time available for enumeration and
the preparation of the Preliminary List of Electors was shorter than it
has been in the past. Also, the time allowed for the Municipal Clerk to
revise the list has been cut back as well.
To rnakecertain that you get yourvote on November 13 in the correct
poll,..please be sure to go and check the Preliminary Lists of Electors
,Whidh the Municipal Clprk will be posting soon. Watch your news.:
paper for an advertisement telling you 'where and when the ListS •
twill be available for revision.
Separate School supporters should also make a point of checking
the list's. The way you are shown will not only determine which school
trustees, you can vote for, but may also affect the direction of the
e.ducation part of your property tax in 1979.
The municipal clerk has a list of people entitled to direct school taxes
and this list can be revised up to Friday, October 27, 1978. There will
be an advertisementln your newspaper informing you where and
when this list can be inspected.
