(photo submitted) Madill students receive excellent results in test F.E. Madill Secondary School has received excellent results for 136 Grade 12 students who took part in a province -wide skills test. Local results contrasted sharply with the provincial results, of the test of 24,000 Grade 12 students. • Ninety-one per cent of Madill's advanced level Grade 12s produced pieces of writing at or above Level 4, the minimum acceptable of six levels set for the test This com- pares with a provincial average of 64 per cent, and the Toronto average of 53 per cent. At the general level, 90 per cent of Madill's students wrote at or above their minimum standard, Level 3, compared to a provincial average of 76 per cent. The writing assessment Was con- ducted over a two week period in the 1991-92 school year, and was desigiried to measure. students' abilities to develop ideas, organize thoughts, apply conventions of language (grammar, spelling, punctuation)', and use specific writing techniques. The evaluation system,, based on a six level scale, was devised by a pool of 20 educators, parents, and business and labor representatives from across the province. Twenty-two per cent of the ad- vanced level Madill students wrote at the top level, Level 6, compared to seven per cent provincially, and 40 per cent wrote at Level 5, com- pared to 24 per cent provincially. While the results in urban schools were affected by the large numbers of students for whom English is a second language, the results locally are encouraging for students, parents, and teachers, all of whom play a role in valuing and developing writing skills. . . F.E. Madill Secondary School was the only Huron County secon- dary schoolselected for par- ticipation in the sample of province - wide writing skills test for Grade 12 students.

Dollars can be saved in busing and benefits The Bruce Board of Education has set its sights on busing and benefits as two areas it can save money. Plans are to cut the $5.4 million transportation budget by 6.5 per cent to match expected provincial grant cuts in 1994. Finance chair Allan MacKay said rate reviews, combining routes with neighboring boards and allowing two more years on the life of a bus will drop costs. The board now Shares more than 68 bus routes with other boards, up from about 40 routes a year ago. Meanwhile, the board .hired the Alexander Consulting Group of Toronto to review the $1.25 million a year it spends on employee benefits. The goal is to find a cheaper way to provide way to provide the same kind of benefit package. MacKay voted against* the contract, saying he preferred to give the job to a Bruce county company that tendered a comparable price to do the work.
