Industrial arts , family studies
could e phased in over two years
By Stephanie Levesque
A two-year phase-in of industrial arts and
family studies is possible for Huron
County's Grade 7 and 8 students.
A proposal for the phase-in, prepared by
the administration of the Huron County
board of education was presented to the
school board at its Mar. 3 meeting. The pro-
posal is to be considered by the board as it
prepares the 1986 budget.
Costs for the program have been
estimated at $199,000 for the first two years,
reported director of education Robert Allan.
This includes four teachers at $38,000 each,
busing estimated to cost $28,000 and
materials budgeted at $19,000.
Now, industrial arts and family studies
are offered only at Seaforth Public School
and Victoria Public School in Goderich.
However, schools in the area are bused to
the two centres.
Students going to Seaforth are from Huron
Centennial in Brucefield, Hensall Public
School, Blyth Public School and Hullett Cen-
tral Public School. Clinton Public School,
Holmesville Public School, Colborne Cen-
tral_and Robertson Memorial in Goderich
travel to Victoria.
At these schools, Grade 8 classes take 80
minutes and Grade 7 classes have 60
minutes. The classes are divided, but not by
sex, into the two programs and switch in the
middle of the year.
The school board's administration pro-
pose that Grade 7 and 8 industrial arts and
family studies classes be started at F.E.
Madill Secondary School in Wingham.
There would be a reshuffling of where
schools go to take the program. If accepted
by the school board, it would start in
September of this year.
For the following September, in 1987, ad-
ministration proposes that South Huron
District High School in Exeter be used as a
site for the Grade 7 and 8 program. The Ex-
eter High School would serve the south end
of the county.
This proposal follows closely on the heels
of secondary school principal Joe Wooden's
report on technical education filed last fall.
The report recommends that industrial arts
and family studies be provided universally
to Grade 7 and 8 classes across the county.
CHSS is
ready for
new venture
CLINTON Under the direction of 'Joe
Wooden, principal of Central Huron Secon-
dary School (CRSS), a committee of
teachers at CRSS is presently planning a Co-
operative Education Program, Members of
the committee are: M. Doherty, E. Craig, B.
Weber, S. Schwark, J. DeGroot, G. Cull, J.
Carr, B. Munro, L. McKenzie., P. Senn and
J. Wooden.
The committee is extremely enthusiastic
about the educational opportunities that co-
operative education will make available to
students at CHSS. Recently, teachers
visited co-op programs in Woodstock,
Newcastle, and Wiarton. In all of these
towns the co-op Rrogram has experienced
enthusiastic community support. These
visits, Ministry of Education guidelines, and
other school board officials have helped the
committee plan a program for CHSS.
Co-operative Education combines periods
of in -school instruction with on-the-job ex-
perience. Students are able to earn secon-
dary school credits while taking advantage
of resources available in the coird unity.
Co-operative education can help develop
skills in social service, business, clerical.
A committee of teachers at Central Huron Secondary School ( CRSS) in Clinton are plan-
ning a co-operative education program which will begin in September. This is the second
such program to be held in Huron County. Members of the committee are (Back row,

Carr, B. Munro, L. McKenzie, P. Senn and J. Wooden.

Aims of the co-op program are to provide

Councillors
decide on
burgundy
CLINTON - "What do you want? Navy or
royal blue, green or burgundy?"
After some discussion at their March 3
meeting, council decided to purchase
burgundy dress jackets with the town crest
in gold to wear at conferences or any time
they are representing the town.
The suggestion to purchase the jackets, at
the expense of each councillor, was made
after Councillors Case Buffinga, John
Cochrane and Bonnie Jewitt attended a con-
ference for new councillors in Goderich and •
after Mayor John Balfour attended an
Ausable-Bayfield Conservation Authority
conference.
"About half or even two thirds of 180
representatives ' at the Ausable meeting
wore them," commented Mayor Balfour.
Councillor Buffinga felt councillors from
one town wearing the same color jackets
"looked impressive."
Council first considered navy blue jackets
but felt the color was too common. They
decided -to purchase burgundy jackets
because the color is versatile.
Those working in the town hall office may
purchase the jacket as well.
