PAINTS 52&3431 Cole is hired as education director for Chipewas CHESLEY--A superintendent with the Bruce County Board of Education has been hired as Education Director for the Chip- pewas of Nawash First Nations at Cape Croker. Paul Cole was chosen from a short list of six candidates for .the job. Chief Ralph Akiwenzie said Cole began his duties September 1. "We're in the process of .as- suming more responsibility for our education system," said Chief Akiwenzie. "We want to make sure our students have a good grounding in their cultural identity, and at the same time all the basics of elemen- tary school." Native education is currently under federal government control and administered through a commit- tee of band council. Recent changes reduce the federal involvement, and for the first time bands will be able to set up school boards with trus- tees elected from band members. They can also hire staff and set policy according to their students' needs. Cole said setting up a board is the first job facing the band.- He .described his new position as "a consultant." "It's a contract position; a consul- tant to implement this . program," Cole said. "I'm not an employee of the band." The program is an education report compiled for the band by researchers from Brock, Nipissing and Queens universities. "It takes into account curriculum, staffing; everything in running a school." Cole signed • an agreement with the band -late in .August, but intends to keep his full-time job as a superintendent with the Bruce board "for the time being." Trustees, and the director of education are aware of his new duties,' Cole said. "I'm going to do the bulk of the work for Cape Croker at nights and on weekends," he said. "1. also have vacation time I can use." Cole has been superintendent with the Bruce board for 12 years and was previously principal at schools in ,Lions Head, Wiarton and Port Elgin. He said he applied for the job with Cape Croker because he is at retirement age and looking for a challenge. "I know the county and the Cape. It's a new venture. I'd like to help them," he said of the band's effort to reorganize its education system. The 1Chippewas of Nawash operate a day care program and have 98 students enrolled in the junior and elementary schools. Chief Akiwenzie is - enthusiastic about changes he believes will give the band more inpu, and improve the quality of education it offers. Those factors, he hopes, will reduce the drop-out rate of secondary school students when they go "off the reserve" for further schooling. Meanwhile, Cole's new job did not come up for discussion at the September 7 meeting of the Bruce Board of Education. ' In fact, trustees approved what was described as the "seventh draft" of duties and responsibilities for the board's five superintendents and director of education. Those duties were shuffled this year, leaving Cole with responsibility for person- nel and policy issues but giving him back-up rather than primary respon- sibility for supervision of schools in Wiarton, which are attended by some Cape Croker students. The shuffle left Cole with primary responsibility for supervising three schools, while other superintendents have seven to 10 schools to super- vise. All superintendents also handle a long list of board and `system -wide' issues and commit- tees: Cole will still be receiving his salary from the Bruce board as.well as his contract salary, with his new 'consulting' job.
