"Our trainers have required time away from their classrooms to be trained by Burroughs Corporation and the regional (ministry) computer advisory council. We have also expected them to plan program materials and teach evening sessions on their own personal time• They have done so generously, but not without weariness and the toll it plays on individuals and their families," states the report. It is this teacher teaching that will be the main role of the computer co-ordinator. Superintendent of business and finance, Jack Lane, said no co-ordinator's fee or responsibility allowance has been attach- ed to the co-ordinator's position. The per- son hired will be placed on the teachers' grid depending on their own personal ex- perience, he said. By Stephanie Levesque The Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Separate School Board will hiro a half- time computer consultant to provide in- service training to its teachers. The school board approved the position at its Feb. 10 meeting after hearing an up- date on its computer committee's ac- tivities over the past few years. The board learned it has an inventory of 60 ICON computers which have been divid- ed into four labs which travel around the system's 19 schools. Each lab stays at a school for eight weeks. However, it's not only the children that need to learn how to operate the com- puters. The teachers also have to learn. "I feel we're leading the way in in- service training in the midwestern region and we're near the top in the province," said computer committee chairman Larry Cook of Dublin. Four and a half years ago there were three PET computers in the Huron -Perth Catholic school system. Computer com- mittee member Don Farwell, of Stratford, said by the Fall of 1982 there was one PET in each of the 19 schools. A year later, the teachers had their first system profes- sional development day on computers. There, the teachers were told that the computer was not an extra subject, but a part of the curriculum, said Farwell, prin- cipal of Immaculate Conception school. "We began looking at ICONs in September 1984," said Farwell. Now, with the four ICON labs, every teacher has access to a computer during the school year. In fact, four three-hour sessions for teachers are currently taking place. "We've had close to 100 per cent atten- dance," said Cook. And in the administration report asking for the co-ordinator, it is noted that the computer committee has voluntarily pro- vided in-service training. "In order to implement our computer education program during the 1985-86 school year, it required 147 teacher supply days," states the report. The report, also comments on the leading role the board has taken in in - The co-ordinator's two year term is from September 1986 to June 1988. By 1990, the committee hopes that students will receive 100 minutes per week on the computer. Reasons for joining Junior Farmers HURON COUNTY - During the month of March, you will .notice a lot of attention on the Junior Farmer Clubs in Huron County. So what's all the excitement about? For about the cost of a record album, young peo- ple in Ontario can buy a membership in an organization that will give them a whole year of social activities and personal challenge. The Junior Farmer's Association offers its members, who range in age from 15 to 29, a wide variety of interesting activities, in- cluding travel, sports, cultural activities, and leadership training prograans- Junior Farmers is an entirely self - governed organization, offering each and every one of its members the opportunity to take on leadership roles, in the local clubs as well as in the provincial association. Many elected officials and leaders in the agricultural community credit''their early leadership training in Junior Farmef s for their later accomplishments. Of course, a vital organization of young people calls for a large portion of social ac- tivity. Besides community betterment pro- jects, which benefit their community as a whole, local clubs . organize many events each year for members, including sports competitions and dances. The provincial association also carries out a number of ac- tivities for the members during the year. There are winter and summer games, where athletes can show their talents; Culturama (plays, debating, public speak- ing and sing -swing, festival of musical and dance competitions. . If travelling to new places, meeting new people and learning about other parts of the world interests you, Junior Farmers can of- fer you travel scholarships to other Cana- dian provinces, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Western Europe. Junior Farmers also sends delegates regularly to conferences and workshops in various areas. The reasons for joining Junior Farmers are as wide and varied as the membership itself, and the best part is that the activities are constantly changing and improving to meet the needs of the members. So why not get a little excited about Junior Farmers during the month of March, and come out to one of the meetings or other activities and join this group of young people. Museum operating budget gets increase The museum's largest expense is for the county of Huron. It will pay $97,500, up salaries and employee benefits. A total of just over $5,000 from last year's levy of $93,600 has been earmarked for salaries, $92,875. plus $17,800 for employee benefits. By Stephanie Levesque It will cost $151,500 to keep the Huron County Pioneer Museum running this year, 4.9 per cent more than last year. The museum's 1986 budget was approv- ed at the February session of Huron Coun- ty council, but is still subject to a final review by the county's executive commit- tee. The council reserves the right for a se- cond look at all department budgets in case there has to be cutting from expenses. Administration costs, such as telephone and other office expenses, as well as maintenance, take the next largest chunk of the 1986 budget. Over $12,000 has been set aside in the budget for administration and $13,200 for maintenance. The largest contributor to this budget is The museum expects to make $16,000 from admissions this year, up from $15,000 budgeted for last year. The province of On- tario is expected to contribute another $30,000 and the museum's gift shop is budgeted to bring in $5,500. The rest of the money will be made up in donations and membership fees.
