Thursday evening. Teachreligionat Grey central The. Huron County Board of Education approved a request Wednesday from' the Listowel Ministerial. Association to begin religious ' instruction classes in Grey Central Public School. The association asked the prin- cipal of Grey Central for permission to begin one half hour lesson twice a month with each of the Grade 5, 6, 7 and 8. Pastor Laurie Morris of the. Listowel association ,cone tatted the school after the home and school association for ' Grey Central had discussed the , religious in- struction several times with the "Grey Central principal. The board was told that it was the home .and school that asked the ministers to see. what could be arranged by the ministerial association. . John Cochrane, director of education, told the board that the school would have to sold' forms home with students to give parents a chance to. decide if they wanted their children taking religious instruction. He said the parents have the right to exempt the " child from the classes the same as they have the right to excuse the child from "standing . during 0 Canada or saying the Lord's Prayer during opening exercises". . Cochrane; told ' the board that the principal 'would be meeting with representatives of the association to draw up guidelines arid a course of study prior, to starting the lessons: He added that dif- ferent.. ministers would then be responsible for different parts , of the course but that the principalwould have final say on what was taught. • Brussels trustee Donald McDonald told the board that he was in favor of the classes adding, that it "may. be the. only, contact some children get with religious in- struction" . Goderich trustee Cayley Hill said the board shoutd, approve the course on 'a one year basis rather than leaving it as an ongoipg thing. He said that the principal should make a report to. the board on how the classes were received or, the ministerial association may. get the impression they have a "carte blanche" to continue a course that is /not being accepted well. Cochrane told the tboard that drily one other school in the county has religious in- struction classes. He_ said Robertson Memorial , Public School in. Goderich was working with the ministerial association 'in that town giving a course that was not to exceed one hour, per week. He added that other courses taught in the'school had to be compressed to allow for the religious classes. ' The board approved the _suggestion and asked ' the school programs policy committee to develop a policy governing ,similar situations that may occur in the future.
