The Lucknow- Concert Band had played at their school on a former band trip. From the opening strains of 0 Canada and the American national anthem right through to the closing One Moment in Time, the dedication of band members and the - conductor was evident. A varied selection of pieces were performed by the Grade 9 to 12 members .composing the band. Students were particularly thrilled with the Pink Panther and a Beauty and the Beast segment. Gordon Cayley was given the honor of conducting the band for one number. The Sandusky Symphonic Band entertained teachers and pupils at Lucknow Central Public School last week. It was an exchange engagement as Mr. Cayley and the Lucknow Concert Band had previously entertained members of their school. (Pat Livingston photo) Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday, May 12, -1993 — Page 3 Board hires new superintendent A new superintendent of schools will join the Bruce County Board of Education at its administration' centre in Chesley this summer. The board has hired Warren Hoshizaki, a principal with the Dryden Board of Education. He will replace retiring superintendent Don Carroll Trustees were told at their May 4 meeting that Hoshizaki has 16 years experience at the secondary and elementary levels, plus degrees in business, mathematics and education. He is now principal of a junior kindergarten -grade 6 school that offers programs in both English and French Immersion.. Hiring committee chair Ray Fen- ton said Hdshizaki was chosen from a short list of seven candidates, and comes with high recommendation from colleagues in the education field. "We picked the best person for the job," said trustee Frank Eagleson of the unanimous vote in favor of Hoshizaki. "But if I had my druthers,we would have picked someone from within (the board)." PART-TIME STUDENT CUTS The proclamation by the Ministry of Education for a week to honor "partners in lifelong learning" hit a sour note with one trustee on the Bruce County Board of Education., Trustee Gord Thompson said the ministry's announcement came the same time as it proposed cutting out funding for part-time students. The province wants to increase the number of courses that have to be taken to qualify as a full-time student. Many of the people taking a smaller course load are adults or students taking OAC part-time while working to save money for university. Thompson said one of the province's social contract talk proposals would cut out funding for part-timers and only give the board money for full-time students. Local taxpayers would have to cover the full cost of education for part-time students. "They say it's all being done in a fain and equitable manner, but we'll see when it comes down," said board chair Don Tedford. COPYRIGHTS A dispute over copyright fees is holding up the use of some photocopied materials in schools.. Until April 30, the Ministry of Education held the license that allowed boards of education to photocopy materials for use by teachers or students in the school.. That license will not be renewed, according to Superintendent John Lennon, because the copyright agency representing writers and publishers asked the ministry for a doubling of its $2 million fee. The agency is now trying to make individual agreements with each board, but Lennon advised against signing that offer. He said fees could increase dramatically in the near future if the copyrighters are dealing with many small contracts instead of one province -wide deal. Estimates are it costs $2 a student for copyright fees on photocopied material. Until the issue is resolved, schools have been notified of the - "legalities" of copyright and photocopying and told to make "no unauthorized photocopies of copyrighted material". "I don't like this," said trustee Frank Eagleson. "We can't have education without these materials." The board is hoping negotiations involving the copyrighters and four umbrella groups, including the Ontario Public School Boar As- sociation, will settle the crisi THE CANADIAN HEARING SOCIETY PROVIDING SERVICES TO THE DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING.
