representation on the committee.
The recommendation calls for 10
parent representatives, with three
each from two regions within Huron
and Perth Counties, and two each
from two different regions. The
regions are based on the areas of
jurisdiction of four board superin
tendents.
At a previous regular board meet
ing Oct. 10, Armstrong was success
ful in persuading several fellow
trustees to reject the recommenda
tion, saying the system was confus
ing to both parents and trustees. She
suggested the committee consider
areas of representation based on the
trustee zones, which she said are
more familiar to parents.
The committee stood firm, howev
er, returning the same recommenda
tion to the board and asking for its
approval before the Dec. 6 date for
committee elections.
Armstrong reiterated her concerns,
and received support from West and
South Perth trustee Maggie Laprade.
Both suggested the committee fails
to provide the communication it is
meant to facilitate, and pointed to a
recent “stakeholders’ meeting” on
extracurricular activities as a case in
point.
According to Armstrong, informa
tion about the meeting was sent to
the committee, seeking parent repre
sentation at the discussion table. But
no parents attended the meeting on
an official basis.
“None of the school councils in
my area were even made aware of
(the meeting),” Armstrong said.
“Once again, a stumbling block was
put in place. '
“Until I find that parents are sup
porting this group, I can’t see them
doing anything good. It’s not work
ing.”
And Laprade said she has had “an
ongoing concern” about the School
Council Liaison Committee, point
ing to earlier assurances that com
munication would improve.
Trustees voted 4-3 to accept the
recommendation, however, with
support coming from North Perth
trustee Donald Brillinger, board
chair Wendy Anderson, and
Stratford trustees Ray Ford and Atje
Tuyten. Tuyten, the trustee represen
tative on the Liaison Committee,
argued the committee’s problems
aren’t based in structure, but in poor
communication.
She suggested approving the deci
sion to alter its make-up — along
with sending a message that commu
nication should be improved —
could provide the type of support the
committee needs to deal with the
problems.
“Perhaps what we need to do is
send a strong message that the par
ents are unhappy with what’s going
on in this group,” Tuyten said.
I would like to thank every-
one that voted for me On^
November 13 for Reeve of the
Township of North Huron.
