Things are different now, I don't really belong, Each day seems a lifetime but I try to be strong, 1 think of the times that we all had, How could something so good turn out so bad? When I visit your grave I hope you can hear, Just talking like that seems to bring you near, You are never more than a thought away, You are quietly remembered every single day, • Your.partlng was w sudden, I often But Bute t part of all Is I never said good-bye, If I wrote a minion verses It wouldn't be a start, To say how I miss you and what I feel • In my heart.

At Monday night's special meeting, Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Separate School Board trustees approved a tax hike of five per cent in its 1994 budget. It includes $500,000 earmarked for the Catholic high school in Huron County which is expected to open in September 1995. Although the board's total budget dropped from $33,540,200 in 1993 to $29,905,120 this year, the increase in taxes was necessary because of a $700,000 reduction in General Legislative Grants (GLG) to the board from the province. An increase in enrolment will bring other provincial to the board funding resulting in an actual loss of $400,000 in funding. "Over the last two years, this board has had a zero per cent increase. There has been less support from the province each year b it the board absorbed the increase. '.lis year, it was too difficult to absorb it," said Gerry Thuss, superintendent of finance. In total, the board will raise an additional $683,489 in taxes this year. About $374,200, or about five per cent, will be raised through an increase in taxes to separate school board ratepayers to compensate for some of the decrease in provincial support absorbed by the board over the past two years. The remaining 5309,223, or four per cent, will be brought in as a result of increased assessment or property values in the two counties. In fact, the board should be increasing taxes by 5.3 per cent to make up for the loss. Dr. James Brown, director of education, said the board will withdraw about $70,000 from its reserves to offset a further tax increase. Ron Marcy, 'chairperson of the management committee, blames the increase squarely on the shoulders of the province and its reduction in funds, or General Legislative Grants (GLG) to the board. "Had it not been for the GLG reduction, we would have easily had a zero per cent increase," he said. The board's expenses in transportation, tuition fees, and operating (including benefits and salaries) all increased. Thuss said the increase in benefits shot up $200,000 because of the eight per cent sales tax on insurance premiums, increased premiums, and increased employer contributions to unemployment insurance. Capital costs dropped dramatically from approximately $6.1 million in 1993 to $1.7 million because the construction at St. Michael Secondary School in Stratford is completed. recent bereavement. 47-19x1 Carroll laments policy MCMILLAN Thanks to all my relatives, friends and neighbors for the flowers, gifts, baking, visits, phone calls and good wishes during my stay in the hospital and since returning home.

BY Mona Irwin Signal -Star Staff What's disappointing about the almost certain loss of a shared Roman-Catholic/public secondary school in Huron County is the way it happened, says Huron County director of education Paul Carroll. The Separate School board voted last week to build its own second- ary school in Huron County, regardless of whether it negotiates a sharing agreement with the Huron County Board of Education. Negoti- ations for the shared facility have been going on for several months. Carroll said the separate school board's decision was not surprising. 'If I were the parent of a child in Grade 5 or 6, who had the possibil- ity of being brought into an envi- ronment that was an absolute hornet's nest, I would be rather reluctant to let my trustees make a decision that would cause that to happen,' Carroll said. He was referring to a meeting held in Clinton April 19, at which 200 people turned out to discuss the proposal to split off part of Central Huron Secondary School and turn into a Catholic secondary school. Among the speakers were three people from the Amherstburg public school system. A similar experiment, tried in Amherstburg several years ago, left both sides bitter and angry.

Representatives from the Essex County separate school system were not invited to the Clinton meeting. Representatives from the Huron public school system and the Huron -Perth separate school Sy m were at the Clinton meeting, "I'm not disappointed with e Huron -Perth separate school board's) reaction. I understand what they've done," Carroll said, - "What I am disappointed about is that we have been reacting in a very emotional fashion to a lot of unsubstantiated rumour, and unnec- essarily negative anxiety produetlon, over matters which aro simply not true. "And that bothers me a lot, because we essentially have two choices here. The reality is, there is going to be a Catholic secondary school and if there's going to be a Catholic secondary school, Is it better to have a Catholic secondary school that is developed in partner- ship with the public school board and the public school system?" "I'm putting my money on the partnership approach. I think we both stand to gain."
