The policy adds non- Catholics "will not be considered for the position of vice-principal, principal and supervisory officer." The area separate school board has taken two voluntary Catholic teaching transfers from the Huron County Board of Education, Seaforth Trustee Gerry Ryan said. He is Chair of the Joint Secondary School Liaison -Extension Committee, and said it is not the boards' intent to put teachers out of work. A report of the joint committee submitted by Ryan noted about 100 high school students are expected to swing to St. Michael and St. Anne's from Huron County Board secondary schools from September 1994 to the start of the next school year, but "the Huron board does not expect to have to designate any teachers". An April 7 letter that was tabled from Madeline Hardy, Chair of Ontario's Planning and Implementation Commission, applauded the Board's intention to work with the Huron County Board "to develop a voluntary agreement covering the matter of teacher designation for the near future". A resolution from the Huron County Board that it approach "other low assessment rural Public and Catholic boards to pursue joint lobbying efforts on behalf of financial interests of mutual concern", and that a letter be sent to Ontario Education Minister David Cooke "expressing our on- going concern about the impact of assessment equalization factors on the property tax burden in the period 1995 to 1997," was referred to the Huron -Perth Board's Management Committee. In other matters, The Chair of the Huron -Perth RCSS Board's Special Education Advisory Committee, Dennis O'Reilly, submitted a report noting the board had 4533 pupils as of Sept. 28, 1994, and that it provides special education programs and services to 368 exceptional pupils, or 8.14 per cent. The Principal of St. James School, Jim McDade, addressed trustees early on the agenda and said standards are the heart of output -based education at the local school, with a recent focus on improved communication by students. Two pupils gave small speeches to the trustees as an example. S. D. H. S. PARENTS' NIGHT WEDNESDAY, April 26th - 7 - 9 p.m. (at the school) Interviews can be arranged by students for parents.
