(Staff Photo) Student transportation still cause for debate (Intended for last week) There was lengthy discussion at the regular meeting of the Huron County Board of Educa- tion last week in Clinton, regard- ing the request of the Clinton and District Christian School Board for free transportation l for 23 of the students in return for taxes paid to the public school system. But when the vote was taken, board members voted unamious- ly in favor of offering to that Board transportation on a pro rata basis. "Let us make it clear that if it should happen that our buses are filled, there Would be no backing out of such an agreement," stated board chairman Bob El- liott who had turned the chair over to vice chairman John Broadfoot for the August and September meetings. "I under. - stand from their statemtnts (the Christian School Board) that we are being niggardly. I don't think we are. It would be costing us more by spring:" When the Christian School Board's secretary, Cecil Bruins - ma, attended the board meeting in August,, he explained there would be no more than three ad- ditional students from that school system on any one Huron Board bus. He said that in all cases there are empty seats on Huron Board . buses which could be utilized by Christian School stu- dents. Roy B. Dunlop, superintendent of business affairs for the Huron Board, said, "We may have empty seats, but we may: not be i YOUR NEW 8 USED CAR CENTER IS BECOMING OVERLOADED WITH GOOD USED CARS Ismer $308500 I 1971 FORD TORINO S00 —Mileage - 10,977 2 Dr. --Excellent condition —Power Steering. and Brakes H.

September." "We must have figures by bus, by route," said Dunlop. Broadfoot reminded the board that the bus accommodation picture could change from month to month. "Then what are you go- ing to do?" asked Mr. Broadfoot. "We have rio free seats on our buses," said John Taylor. "These people decided on their uwn not to take adantage of the public school system. If. they want to ride on our buses, I think they should pay for it." Section 37 (1) of the Schools Ad- ministration Act reads: "A board may provide transportation for its resident pupils to and from a spool that the board operates or fo its pupils for whom it pays fees in a school operated" by an- other board." Dr. Alex Addison felt the On- tario Department of Education should provide some guidance on this matter. "They want to stay right "away from it," said Elliott. "We can be the dogs." Elliott added that this question of Christian Schools or any other, parochial schools- is "difficult" and can "cause war". "It shouldn't be allowed to go that far," added Mr: Elliott. Charles Rau of the Zurich area, who is the, separate school repre- sentative, was asked for his? opin- ion. . "I think I'll just stay clear," said Mr. Rau. • John Broadfoot took tifne dur- ing the meeting to refute some statements made in a letter to the county editors from Cecil Bruins - ma. Mr. Broadfoot said that al- though Mr. Bruinsma said, "The operation ofour school is saving the County Board around $100,000 annually," it was actually costing the Huron taxpayers money. The. vice chairman claimed that if the Christian School students . were incorporated .into the public school system, the provincial grants would be increased and figured on a "different ratio", af- fecting more economical educa- tion for the county pubic school supporters. Mr. Bruinsma further charged "discrimination against the Christian School Board. Mr.. Broadfoot reminded the, board that some of the children from families where their youngsters attend th' Christian school in Clinton attend public school Kin- dergarten and opportunity class- es. "Is this discrimination''" asked Mr. Broadfoot.
