ON THE SQUARE 524-8551 BY WILMA OKE The Huron County Board of Education at its meeting in Clinton Monday afternoon ap- proved the use of the Veneral Disease teaching kit in the teaching of health in the schools under the board begin- ning with students in Grade 7. Mrs. Marion Zinn, chairman of the education committee, who made the motion " for ap- proval, explained that the kit has been desgned jointly by ,the ministry of health and the ministry of education, and the board will ,receive a com- plimentary kit. She' said that Dr. G.F. Mills, Medical Officer of Health for Huron, had atten- ded the committee meeting to present how the slides, tapes, transparencies, books, etc. could be used by the physical education teacher who will use the kit.- She said Dr. Mills will set up a workshop to assist the teaching on V.D. Mrs. Zinn reported this sub- ject is not new but has been on the secondary school program for some time. She said students do not like lectures on morals, hence kit is for treat- ment rather than prevention. Mrs. Zinn said that Dr. Mills was asked if V.D. was prevalent in the County but he stated doctors do not report cases and that a visit to a doctor by a student is kept confidential.' John Henderson asked that during the year, any time during the year, that one of the teachers attend a Board meeting and "go through ,a regular lesson just as if before stu` lents". He said, "I'm afraid a lot of the board members ' do not know what is going on. I feel that what is being taught about sex, instead of helping students, is hindering, them." - When asked if he wanted the initial lesson in the kit, or a middle one, Mr. Henderson replied, "I want one they think would be real interesting." Clarence McDonald asked why V.D. teaching would start in Grade 7 and Mrs. Zinn said she had questioned this too. She reported that she was in- formed Grade 7 students would not get the same lesson as high school students but on a level suitable for their age group.
