Further study No french immersion this year in Huron There will be no French Im- mersion ' classes in Huron County this September, however the Huron County Board of Education has agreed to set up an ad hoc committee to further study French Immersion. Four options were con- sidered by the board at its April 2 meeting which saw the boardroom filled with over 50 spectators on both the for and against sides of French Immersion. The four options ranged from completely rejecting the request for a French Immer- sion program to setting up a pilot program this September as requested by the Commit- tee for Learning Opportunities. The board decided to go for one of the options - an ad hoc committee - because as vice- chairman Art Clarke said, the board's responsibility goes beyond saying yes to ,p pilot project. The Wingham trustee said the board has to be com- mitted to French Immersion. Goderich trustee Dorothy Wallace agreed with Mr. Clarke's suggestion that a lot of planning has to take place before French Immersion is set up across the county. "That is the reason for set- ting up a pilot project," said Mrs. Wallace. She spoke in favor of a French Immersion pilot pro: ject in Goderich and clarified the fourth option, a recom- mendation put forward by the board's personnel committee. The recommendation call- ed for setting up a pilot pro- ject at Robertson Memorial Public School in Goderich with a number of conditions which included the understan- cling that any additional costs from the program be met by EXETER LIONS CONTRIBUTE --- Dave Heller, zone chairman for 37 West accepts five cheques from Exeter Lions Club president John Norris at Thursday's meeting.

What I had in mind was to attempt to establish French Immersion at no detriment to the school," said Mrs. Wallace. The Goderich trustee said she has received numerous phone calls from people sug- gesting she wanted to set up French Immersion even if it meant other programs had to suffer. "I've certainly been blasted enough in the past week. It was never my intention to do any harm to the existing pro- gram," she said. Mrs. Wallace noted that to implement a French Immer- sion program in Kindergarten and Grade 1, only one full- time additional teacher would be needed because a half-time Kindergarten teacher would be available from present staffing figures. This, she said, would be a benefit to the English speak- ing classes because with the addition of a teacher there would no longer be the three split grade classes at Robertson. Trustee Tony McQuail said he isn't in favor of further study on French Immersion. He said the board should set up a pilot project to see if there is interest and if the in- terest continues. Blyth trustee John Elliott said he doesn't support set- ting up a French Immersion programa for Se-)tember. His reasons include the fact that the board is trying to cut costs and three Huron schools are now under accommodation reviews. Several Goderich residents from both sides of the issue gave their comments to the board. Speaking in favor of French Immersion were Dr. James Rourke, Steve Burns and Joseph L. Oatman. All three men said French Immersion is the most cost effective method of teaching French. "It's a substitution pro- gram, not an add on program like Core French," said Dr. Rourke. Those speaking against a French Immersion project were Doug Harrison, Don Jackson and Robert Stephenson. Harrison said he had a peti- tion with about 600 signatures from people who are opposed to setting up a French Immer- sion pilot project. He said the question of such a program should be put on the municipal election ballot next year. Jackson said a telephone survey of about 90 people in- dicated about 51 were against French Immersion and the rest had mixed feelings. "We're not against French and we're not against the French Immersion concept," said Jackson. However, he is concerned for the ramifications on those students not in French Immersion. Trustee Elliott asked for comments from administration.• The administration can im- plement any of the alter- natives contained within the recommendations. It is true however, that we do prefer some solutions to others. I feel fairly confident that we can comment without unduly in- fluencing the outcome on this matter. I expect each trustee has his mind largely made up," said Robert Allan, direc- tor of education. Administration, said Allan, prefers the ad hoc committee. This committee, whose' guidelines will be decided later by the board, will have about a year to complete fur- ther study. "French language instruc- tion is a major national issue. It has major implications for the Huron County school system. We currently are having a difficult time finan- cially. We have experienced and are experiencing a significant decline in enrol- ment. We are busy meeting the demands of major com- pulsory legislation in secon- dary school curriculum and in special education. The timing is not appropriate for the Huron County Board to take on an optional program," said Allan. Mrs. Wallace also com- mented that while she isn't sure how determined the Goderich Committee for Learning Opportunities is, that she wouldn't be surpris- ed if they rented a room, hired a teacher and opened their school. Mark Sully of Goderich, a member of the learning op- portunities committee, following the board's decision said the idea of an individual school would be looked at. He said the question of French Immersion would "just heat up more and more" in a year. Sully added that costs and declining enrol- ment will still be facing the board in a year. There was no recorded vote for the motion for an ad hoc committee. Chairman Eugene Frayne said he and trustee Dennis Rau, the two separate school represen- tatives on the board wouldn't vote as French Immersion is primarily an elementary school issue. The chairman did say that 10 trustees voted in favour of the ad hoc committee. 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 iii11111111111111111111111111111111111111111 llllll1111r 111u1111111IIIH ll 1111IIIII111113111111111111 By Jack Riddell MPP Each week I sit down and prepare this Queen's Park Report. I try to give a general view of what is happening at the Legislature and to keep you informed of bills and resolutions before the House. It is easy to sit behind a desk, send out written material, and then say the people are being informed. However, the dialogue must be a two-way street; and therefore, there must be an opportunity for groups, organizations and in- dividuals to meet their Member and have input. A meeting to do just that took place quite recently with members of the teaching pro- fession. I want this dialogue to be continued and expanded, for there is much for me to learn and know about their concerns and aspirations. The meeting was helpful to me, for while we have an official critic in the Legislature for Education, Colleges and Universities, i was able to learn and expand from talk- ing to those 'close to home'. I am impressed with the quality of our people engaged in the teaching profession. They work longer hours and assisj in more projects than they are given credit for. But to do the job, and to accept their increasing respon- sibilities, they must be given the tools and their work must be more clearly understood. This leads me to say that those who serge in elective of- fice in whatever capacity, and as individuals, all have an obligation to keep themselves and others well informed. This means that as citizens we should attend meetings of council, school boards, and other boards and commis- sions elected or appointed. it has been my ekperience that few other people bother to at- tend unless they have a pro- blem or petition to present. Citizens generally should at- tend to see how their tax dollar is spent, and not wait until election time to express concern. in most jurisdictions, boards of education receive the largest share of the tax dollar. i wonder how many at- tend their regular meetings? They are open to you to attend and i hope you will be en- couraged to do so. 11. is helpful for elected people to know of your interest. That is why f encourage everyone i meet to visit ogy-Legislature and hopefully feel a little closer to understanding the decision making process. flacI 090Efin993 Need dialogue - And, of course, like our in the House the question of teachers, I can take the op- people who receive disability portunity to outline a pensions, and compared these Member's working day, so benefits to the amount receiv- you will better appreciate ed by seniors.
