No more grants for Grey
school's portable rentals
Huron County school trustees
have been told that the Ministry of
Education will not continue to pay
an annual rental fee of $4,200 for a
portable classroom in use at Grey
Central Public School, and if the
classroom space is still needed for
the 1988-89 school year, other
arrangements will have to be
made.
A letter from the ministry’s
regional office in London to
Huron’s director of education, Bob
Allen, says that the leasing of
portable classrooms is meant only
as a short-term solution to accom
modation needs, and as the Grey
Central unit has been leased since
1981, a more permanent solution
must be found.

The ministry adds that it will
recommend a capital allocation
towards the purchase of the unit,
however, if the extra classroom
continues to be needed. But Glenn
Lamb, the board’s supervisor of
financial services, says that under
capital expenditure guidelines, the
purchase of the unit would cost the
local board upwards of $10,000
depending on the value assigned to
the unit.
Grey Central currently has two
portable classrooms in use housing
a total of 52 children. However, a
spokesman for the school said that
