]Eioai.d to spend nn
BY WILMA OKE
If the ministry of
education approves, the
Huron -Perth Roman
Catholic separate school
board will spend about
$588,500 on school im-
provements and new
buses , in 1979, $317,500 in
1980 and. about $785;000 in
1981, 1982 and 1983, for a
total capital expenditure
of $1,691,000. over the
next five years.
The board set its
spending priorities
Monday night.
First on the list was St.
Michael's school in
Stratford where the
board hopes to convert
two classrooms to in-
dustrial arts rooms and
two classrooms to home
economics rooms. It also
plans to make a gym
'balcony into a music
room, including equip-
ment for each. The
estimated cost is $185,000.
Its second priority for
1979 is to add , three
classrooms at St.
Joseph's school in Clinton
to replace two portables
there now, plus the ad-
dition of a special
education facility there
for the pupils in the
county of Huron. The
estimated cost is $368,500.
Its third priority for
1979 is the purchase of
two new buses to replace
two 1973 66 -passenger
buses at an estimated
cost of $35,000.
In 1980 the board
proposes to buy two
additional new buses for
an estimated $36,000 to
replace two 1974 72 -
passenger buses. In
addition the board
proposes two classrooms,
a resource centre, kit-
chen and sleeping ac-
commodation as a
facility for out -door
education for the system
schools in co-operation
with one of _ the Con-
servation . Authorities in
the two counties, at an
estimated cost of
$281,500.
In 1981 the board would
consider the purchase of
a four to five acre site in
the town of Listowel at an
estimated cost of $100,000
to build a five -room
school on the site in 1982.
A library resource and
general purpose room,
change rooms and health
room -will be included at
an estimated cost of
$410,000.
Also planned for 1982 at
St. Joseph's school in
Stratford, is a library
resource, general pur-
pose and change rooms at.
an estimated cost of
$275,000.
William Eckert,
Director of Education,.
said improvements would
"look after some of our
needs but the list is open
for deletions or additions
of items not already
there".
'Trustee Ronald Murray
of Dublin questioned why
schools lacking such
things as gyms were not
-included in the list of
proposals. He stated,
"we're not going for
equality of education --
some schools have
everything and others -
zilch !"
He was told the board
would lack credibility if it
included in its list of
proposals the needs of
every school.
Trustee Ronald Marcy
of Stratford asked when
the board could expect
reply from the ministry
of education on its
decision to approve or not
approve the proposals in
the five-year forecast. He
was told it could be
February or not at all. He
suggested that if the
board was turned down it
should send a delegation
to Toronto to speak
directly to ministry of-
ficials.
Trustee William
Kinahan of Lucknow
questioned the outdoor
education centre and
what conservation,
authority would . be in-
volved. Mr. Eckert told
him it could be any
authority in the tw ..
counties and the proposal
to the ministry had to be
submitted early because
if approved, much time
was needed to research
locations and work out
the agreement.
Mr. Eckert said many
boards had -worked out
agreements and the
ministry, looked
favourably on such
projects.
John O'Leary of Staffa
asked about the school at
Exeter saying "I think
the board only did a
minimum there this
year". To which Mr.
Eckert replied that
possibly during the next
few ye rs with the con-
tinuing growth in Exeter
it would be necessary to
look into improvements
there.
Business superin-
tendent Jack Lane said
that new projects could
be added to the list of
Ripley District

teacher interviews will be
