Education trustees want to be notified upon the death of a student or staff member it was revealed at the May 3 meeting of the Huron County Board of Education. The issue came up when trustees were asked to review certain pages of the board's procedures manual. One such page was the Expression of Sympathy procedure. Twp. of Stanley and Bayfield Trustee Bob Burton said "I think it should be included in the procedure that board members be notified upon the death of a student. I feel it's knowledge we should have so that if we want, we can attend a funeral or express sympathy." Chair Bea Dawson suggested that the request, if passed by the board, should become a separate proce- dure since the Expressions of Sym- pathy procedure deals with the sending of cards and flowers by the board. Goderich Trustee Rick Rompf supported the idea and a motion was made to have the board's exec- utive committee look into estab- lishing a new procedure. *** Winners of the Regional Science Fair were announced. The local stu- dents who placed in the top three of their categories are: Amy Marcoux and Cynthia DeWit of Grey Central with their project called 'Which Toothpaste Works Best?'; Jill Walden of Blyth P.S. for her pro- ject called 'Feeding Habits of Win- ter Birds; and Sjaan Gerth of East Wawanosh P.S. with his project on bridges. *** The board passed a motion call- ing for a standardization for lifting and mobility devices to be compati- ble with wheelchair sizes for handi- capped students. Della Baumgarten spoke of the issue which arose at a Special Edu- cation Advisory Committee meet- ing. She had been informed that at present there is no inter-ministerial agreement on the standardization sizing for mobility devices, vehicle ramps and lifting devices. This can result in the installation of a ramp or lifting device which doesn't fit a wheelchair. She said the federal government should be asked to develop national standardization to guarantee com- patibility of devices. *** May is hearing awareness month. That's the news Beth McGee, the area resource teacher for the hear- ing impaired, wrote in a letter to trustees. She is presently working with 23 students who have hearing impair- ment or central auditory processing problems.
