Director highlights board initiatives
By Shelley McPhee Haist
CLINTON - Change, renewal, commitment
and responsibility were words highlighted in
the annual report made by Bob Allan, Direc-
tor of Education to Trustees of the Huron
County Board of Education when they met for
the first meeting of the year on January 13.
In his report, Mr. Allan highlighted some
of the major board decisions that were made
over the past year of office, from July IN, 1985
to June 30, 1986. They included:
•Gino Giannandrea was appointed as the
board's personnel officer .and chief,
negotiator. His work commenced in mid-
October of 1985.
•The board made a commitment to establish
the Bluewater Secondary School and an
agreement was ratified between the Ministry
of Corrections and the Huron County Board
of Education. Later that same year, an in-
itiative was taken to provide full -year pro-
gramming at the Bluewater Secondary
School and a motion was passed to design an
experimental school year calendar to accom-
modate the needs of the students attending
the school.
•Contracts were ratified with the custodians,
with the secretaries and teachers aides.
'A significant new program was introduced
- the Values, Influences and Peers Program
to all Grade 6 classrooms in September, 1986.
•A budgetary restraint initiative was taken.
The board asked all groups and individuals
who recommended allocations in excess of 104
per cent of 1985 allocations to indentify a cor-
responding area of reduction from within the
scope of their responsibility.
•The Board of Education initiated co-
operative dialogue when the Huron -Perth
Separate School's Executive Committee way
invited to a meeting to. discuss items of com-
mon interest.
•Family Studies and Industrial Arts pro-
gramming for Grade 7 and 8 students in
Huron County was expanded so that it would
be available throughout the system, with im-
plementation in the north part of the county
in September 1986 and in the south part in
September 1987:
•Comprehensive summer school programs
evolved when the board agreed to offer pro-
grams at Central Huron Secondary School in
Clinton, Seaforth District High School,
Bluewater Secondary School, J.A.D. McC r; .
dy Public School, Victoria Public School in
Goderich and Wingham Public School. The
board provided transportation from each
town to `f Pntral }Inrnn and annrnpriate
transportation arrangements were made for
the students to attend other programs.
•Vanastra Public School became a full grade
school, with the introduction of Grade 7
studies in September 1986 and Grade 8 pro-
gramming effective September 1987.
•The board set its directions for its terms -
to develop the potential of each indriiiiiaTs
within the school system; to develop an,
awareness of the positive aspects of the school,
system within the Huron County community;
to develop a co-operative communications
program to enhance the knowledge and
understanding of the Huron County School
system.
Religious studies pursued
By Shelley McPhee Haist
CLINTON - Offering religious education
in the public school system is a concept that
will be addressed by the Huron County
Board of Education.
At the January meeting of the board,
Goderich and Colborne Township trustee
Joan Van den Broeck noted, "It has recently
come to my attention that some separate
school supporters are supporting the con-
cept of a separate high school because they
believe that is the only way that they can
receive religious education instruction for
their children. I would appreciate it if the
Huron County Board members who form the
Liasion Committee with the Huron -Perth
Separate Board members would again
make it clear that the Huron County Board
of Education is willing to accommodate
religious education instruction in its
schools."
John Jewitt, vice chairman of the Huron
board, has been working on the liason com-
mittee. He said that he wants to co-operate
with the separate board in an effort to make
religious education courses available in the
public school system.
"We would be eager to accommodate
them," Mr. Jewitt said, "but we cannot
legally offer ,such courses, ours being a
public board:"
Mr. Jewitt said he would seek separate
board support for a request to have religious
education course made available in the
public school system, and the manpower
made available to staff the program.
Religious education is an optional credit
course offered in the separate school
system.
Mrs. Van den Broeck noted, i`It's unfor-
tunate that such courses aren't available
within our present system."
Huron Centennial School, at Brucefield, won the 1986 Ausable Bayfield Conservation
Authority (ABCA) group award during the ABCA and Huron Soil and Crop Improvement
Association dinner in Stanley Township on January 16. Earl Rees of ABCA makes the
presentation to teachers Bud Walker and Morely Desjardine. The school has par-
ticipated in tree planting, Camp Sylvan and conservation education programs. ( Exeter

4-11 projects
involve 747
county youth
HURON COUNTY - Young people and
communities have a great deal to gam from
4-H. In 1986, 747 young people in Huron
County completed 1,394 4-H projects on 16
different topics. One hundred and ninety-
five volunteer 4-H Leaders were involved.
Besides learning skills such as how to
show a calf, or write a resume, 4-H
members develop skills in self-confidence,
responsibility, leadership and
communications.
4-H clubs have six meetiags over a three
to six month period. If a project is not of-
fered in your,area, new clubs can be formed.
All it takes is at least six interested young
people betvdeen the 'ages of 12 and 21, and a
leader. Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and
Food -provides leader training and project
materials.
A volunteer 4-H Leader required a ge-
nuine interest in young people, enthusiasm,
an ability to work with young people, and a
willingness to learn new ideas.
For information on the Huron County 4-H
program contact Richard Hamilton or Jane
Muegge at 482-3428 or 1-800-265-5170.
