The Huron -Perth Roman Catholic separate school board is submitting a detailed plan of its high school to the planning and implementation com- mission which was considered at the board's October 28 meeting. At the same meeting, it was announced that ncipal, for Perth RC school the school's principal will be in the area for a week in November. Daniel Bishop, the man who will be .principal of St. Michael's secondary school in September of next year, will be visiting area schools from November 18 to 21. He will spend the days visiting with the students in their schools and hold evening sessions to meet the community. Bishop officially starts as pr' ipal BAZAAR ARTICLES — Showing some of the items on sale at Satur- day's Kirkton ACW bazaar are Walter Creery and Shirley Paul.

He will spend the first six months preparing for next, fall. Superintendent of education John McCauley and. the current St. Michael's principal, Larry Cook, have been spending some time preparing the Grade 8 students for high school Along that line, director of education William Eckert has sent a memo to all principals, which cuts off access to Grade 8 students in Catholic schools from the public high schools. While Eckert says there will pro- bably be exceptions in Huron Coun- ty, where there won't be a Catholic high school until at least 1988, the traditional visit to Grade 8 classrooms by guidance counsellors will end. The director indicated that for the past number of years, information has been given by the public school board in evening programs. He sug- gests that the evening programs con- tinue or the Catholic students receive the information during professional development days at their school. And as September 1986 approaches, the school board is working on plans to adapt St. Michael's to a high school. McCauley said renovations to the Stratford school have been estimated at $70,000. The superintendent said the plann- ing and implementation commission has asked for the needs of the school board and the renovation project is the main need. He said the board's ac- commodation review committee will be looking further into the project following the municipal election this fall. Initially, the plans call for a kitchen -cafeteria complex to be built on the mezzanine floor above the gymnasium. Now, that space is empty. Also, plans call for a family studies classroom and an arts room to be put in a separate building already on the school property. The building is a former lodge hall. For the future, the board is projec- ting that by 1989 it will need to build a new high school. This, said McCauley depends on enrolment and capital funding from the province. Other assumptions made in the board's submission to the planning and implementation commission, is that by 1989, the French immersion program will have expanded so that one whole school will be needed for this program. This means the four _ remaining schools, including St. Michael's, will convert to Kindergarten to Grade 8 schools by September 1989. "The key word is projected," com- mented McCauley when asked if he was sure this would all fall into place. Shipka couple mark 45th ou Gill Road.
