Home My WebLink AboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1974-11-14, Page 14age 14—The Wingham Advance -Times, Thurs., November 14, 1974 Grants are set to promote community use of schools A six -point program intended to promote the community use of schools has been announced by Education Minister Thomas Wells. Speaking to the Ontario Com- munities and Schools Conference in London, Mr. Wells stated that for the balance of the 1974-75 school year the Ministry will grant boards up to $10,000 per project for new or expanded com- munity school projects. The money can be used for staffing of such programs. A community schools unit will be created within the Ministry with a small staff in the Toronto office and a community education officer in each of the nine regional offices across the province. Mr. Wells said that the new unit will employ existing Ministry staff, and will not re- quire hiring of additional personnel. The unit personnel, he said, will work in the schools at the grass roots level, improving and expanding existing com- munity school programs and developing new ones. The com- munity schools unit will be backed by an advisory com- mittee comprised of re- presentatives of provincial organizations concerned with recreation, education and com- munity affairs. The Ministry will also produce a practical handbook that will in- form and motivate school principals, staff, and interested citizens regarding the Com- munity use of schools. It will con- tain facts, ideas, and examples. The current policy of allowing school boards to classify their ex- penditures related to community school activities outside the limits of the provincial expendi- ture cea Ings will be maintained. The Ministry, Mr. Wells said, will strongly support the c�oncept of community use of schodls after regular school hours as well as the use of vacant school facilities for community purposes during school hours. The Ministry will also urge school boards to ex- amine their procedures and policies relating to liaison and co- operation with community agencies that may wish to use board facilities. Mr. Wells said that he was not talking about building new schools to accommodate com- munity school programs but rather about making use of existing school buildings in new ways and for new purposes. The Ministry, Mr. Wells said, strongly supports 04 dio jects that encourage vides and groups schools. for activities that the sCiKKA +iol * etitur#1, 10014 and learning centre of the borhood for people of all OW HOLD =vim OF REMEMBRANCE FORUWICH -The Remem- brance Day service was held on Monday in the United Church under the Howick Legion, Bran sal, with4he - Royal Canadian Legion in charge.
